Der Sturm: Verachtet

A storm surge. Two dead. Countless secrets.

More than a week has passed since two skeletons were uncovered during a storm surge on the Darss. Chief Inspector Tom Engelhardt and cryptologist Mascha Krieger have managed to solve a thirty-year-old case, but the two dead from the cliff have still not been identified. A CD found with the remains has not provided any leads so far.

Through a ring, they finally manage to determine the identity of the woman. Allegedly, she emigrated to the USA years ago. Is her husband involved in her death? Was it a jealousy drama, and was the second victim her lover? Before Mascha and Tom can confront the husband with their suspicions, he disappears without a trace. Then Mascha finally succeeds in decrypting the files on the CD, and suddenly the case presents itself in a completely new light.
