The murder of a farmer confronts Chief Prosecutor Reuther, Chief Commissioner Klar and High Commissioner Fischer with a case whose background is far in the past. According to legal doctor Dr. Engel died Jens Tucchner due to the blunt influence of violence. The trail leads from the crime scene to a nearby court community, to which the murder victim apparently belonged. The group is led by court owner Lia Graf. But not only they, but also Usha Patel, Vincent Urban and Marc Menzel pose puzzles for the investigators. How did Jens Tucchner really relate to the rest of the court community? Stefan Tuchen, the murdered brother, will soon be targeted by the investigation.
Did he argue with his brother Jens about an inheritance? Jens Tucchner also seems to have had an argument with his ex-girlfriend Anke Wiebold shortly before his death. Is the failed relationship between the two possibly solving the case? And then there is Ludwig Längsfeld, the neighbor of the court community with whom Jens Tuchen is said to have recently fought. It is now up to Bernd Reuther, Kerstin Klar and Max Fischer to identify the real perpetrator from the large circle of suspects.
