Not only is the body of seventeen-year-old Elena fished out of the Mattsee lake, but also the horrific events of a shameful chapter in Austrian history come to light on its shores. The odd-couple investigator duo Dorner and Fink take on the case, whereby mainly Dorner, who comes from the area, becomes deeply entangled in his own past. The Riahi brothers successfully create a fast-paced and exciting Landkrimi provincial thriller that breaks with the classical dramaturgies of the genre.
