Undertaker Gina Preuss lies skull-smashed in a grave on the Stuttgart cemetery. Her brother Enno Preuss now inherits their father's firm, which he wanted to modernize, she objected, but already ran into debt. Gina previously had been employed by junior detective Nele's father, Manfred Becker, who also seems involved in fraudulent practices with last remains, brought to the team's attention by deeply disgruntled, even threatening customer Amadeus Sandmann, whose sister's ashes seems missing instead of buried, and cemetery florist Dagmar Adam.
