Carl Sievers arrives on Sylt as the new lieutenant and has a somewhat frosty meeting with his detectives Ina Behrendsen and Hinnerk Feldmann. The next day, a body is found on the island.
The dead man is Gunnar Schneider, a police sergeant in Kiel. Sievers shows himself to be a consummate professional at the crime scene. But Ina and Hinnerk can’t get a word out of him about why he was transferred to Sylt from his previous assignment in Kiel.
The detectives find 30,000 euros in Schneider’s hotel room and a camera with pictures of Oliver Kruse, a restaurateur. Kruse is suspected of dealing drugs in his restaurants on Sylt and in Kiel. Was Schneider blackmailing him?
