After 602 days without alcohol, Captain Benny Griessel of the South African police can no longer bear any tragedies. When Benny is called to a multiple murder case, it brings him to the brink of collapse – a former friend and colleague, also a detective, has shot his wife and two daughters before taking his own life. Benny wants out – out of his job, his home, and his relationship with his singer girlfriend Alexa. He moves into a hotel and starts drinking again. However, Benny's unique talent is urgently needed to investigate another crime – the high-profile murder of Ernst Richter, the CEO of the new tech startup Alibi, whose body is discovered in the sand dunes north of Cape Town. Alibi is a service that creates fake appointments, documents, and calls to enable people to cheat on their partners. It has made the company one of the most notorious in South Africa. Can Benny pull himself together again?.
