A coal deposit is to be mined in the Schwarzes Moor nature reserve. Environmental groups are vehemently opposed to this – above all Anouk Grunwaldt, the frontwoman of the climate protection movement.
Utz Mildenberger, Chairman of Germany’s largest electricity company, is pursuing completely different goals. In the midst of the protests about the imminent dismantling, a highly professional contract killer plans a gruesome assassination attempt on one of the main protagonists.
Investigator Karla Beneventi from the BKA (Bundeskriminalamt: Federal Criminal Police Office; the Central Office of the German Criminal Police is a higher federal authority of the Federal Republic of Germany subordinate to the Federal Ministry of the Interior and for Home Affairs) must find out who is in the killer’s crosshairs: Is it the young climate activist or the successful energy manager? And above all: how can the assassination attempt still be thwarted? Because the moment of truth is nearly upon us.
