A boy is found dead in a lake there and the investigation leads to a socially dicey settlement - Judith Mohn's birthplace. When the body of a 16-year-old boy is found in an idyllic lake near an old miners' settlement, the investigation begins in a village in the German-French border region, the home of Inspector Mohn. She turned her back on the settlement and her family more than 20 years ago to become a policewoman, which doesn't please everyone: people who grow up here don't actually switch sides to investigate their own people. A case with a very personal touch for the Saarland inspector and her team. Judith has to face a reunion with her mother and her cousin Mischa and his obscure friend Sharif are on the list of suspects. So is a gang of youths operating in the area, who seem to be involved in the equally lucrative and illegal trade in counterfeit branded goods. The secluded lake where the victim was found is a popular meeting place for the youthful group, and the dead man does not seem to be the only secret hidden there this summer. When Judith Mohn questions the victim's parents, they react dubiously. The father seems aggressive, the mother extremely intimidated - a violent interaction within the family cannot be ruled out. What could this fact have to do with the cause of death. And why does the attempt to solve the case seem to escalate the quarrel between the couple and equally in the youth gang? Judith Mohn is forced to deal with the shadows of her past.
