Karin Wegemann has been transferred. Instead of being on active duty at the LKA, she has been teaching prospective colleagues at the police academy for several months. But a life at a standstill is not made for a woman who feels most comfortable in a headwind. The career change brings her neither external stability nor inner peace. Her superiors see this too.

He puts Wegemann under pressure and tells her about a 14-year-old witness who has put him on the trail of a child trafficking ring in Potsdam. Her investigation puts her in dire straits, because the perpetrators also know that there is a witness.
