An explosive mixture of theft, murder and revenge - and at the same time a thrilling look into history! Several grisly body discoveries between Kiel and Eckernförde keep the homicide squad on its toes. It soon becomes clear that this is a series of murders and not just a case of misfortune. But what is the motive for the perpetrator(s)? And are other people in danger? While Chief Superintendent Hinnerk Matthiesen and his colleagues follow the clues that lead to the Kiel naval base at Tirpitzhafen, a retired police officer draws the investigators' attention to the long-ago murder of a marine.

The man had been researching the whereabouts of a large quantity of gold bars that had gone missing with a submarine in the Baltic Sea during the last weeks of the war in 1945. The circumstances of his murder have such strong parallels to current events that Matthiesen does not believe in coincidence. He follows the winding paths of a mad treasure hunt that has been going on for decades and puts himself in the greatest danger.
