Leere Gräber

During the recovery of a ship's engine from the bottom of Lake Zurich, a police diver discovers the body of a man. His limbs were weighted down with dumbbells, ruling out an accident. Since the deceased is not reported missing in Switzerland, prosecutor Regina Flint and detective Bruno Cavalli involve Interpol. Soon it becomes clear: the description matches that of an Argentine journalist who disappeared without a trace six months ago. But what brought Ramón Penasso to Zurich? And what was he working on before his death?

As the investigation stalls, Regina Flint flies to Buenos Aires. In Zurich, Bruno Cavalli crosses the boundaries of what is legally permissible in his pursuit of the perpetrator, as he has nothing left to lose.
