The plot:
After the body of a 17-year-old girl is found in Mattsee, Chief Inspector Dorner, an investigator who grew up in Mattsee, takes over the case. Despite previous negative incidents on the force, young investigator Alex is assigned to assist him. It turns out that the dead woman is the daughter of Dorner's childhood friend, which makes the case personal. Alex sees this as a challenge, but also as an opportunity. The investigation leads not only to Dorner's own past, but also to the dark events in Mattsee. The truth will eventually emerge from the dark waters of Mattsee.
