The body of a bus operator from Lübeck is found in a parked car, in front of Nora’s house of all places. Is this a message from the murderer?
Together with Inspector Simon Brandt from the CID she investigates the social circles of the victim, Thorsten Jensen. A young Turkish employee of the victim, Murat Kaymaz, has been on the run since the night of the crime and looks likely to leave the country.
But suspicions are also raised with regard to former coach driver Niels Franke. Nora finds more and more evidence that Thorsten Jensen and Murat Kaymaz have more in common than just their job, and that Jensen was involved in illegal activities with his bus company. The case seems to have a greater dimension than initially thought. Eventually, Simona and Nora need the help of Nora’s supervisor Jan Geissler with whom Nora often argues, and with whom she is involved in a secret affair.
