A small village atop a mountain in South Tyrol. The church is visible from afar. However, instead of piety, Sonja Schwarz and Matteo Zanchetti are met with a wall of silence. Teresa Gamper, who was not well-liked in the village, has been murdered, and the two detectives are investigating. When the young village priest is found dead shortly thereafter, the question arises once again: who has something to hide here? Meanwhile, Zanchetti finds himself in the crosshairs of the ruthless mafia lawyer Giulia Santoro, who soon pushes him to his limits.
