- Lawyer Sophie Cross and her husband Thomas Leclercq look at crime with different eyes. While he is responsible for the investigation as the head of the local police, she fights as a criminal defense lawyer with all legal means for her clients - regardless of the question of guilt or justice. When her six-year-old son Arthur disappears while playing in front of her beach house, a nightmare begins for Sophie: She has only let him out of sight for a single moment - now he is as if swallowed by the ground. The lead investigator Gabriel Deville finds no evidence of an accident or kidnapping. The unsuccessful search and the wait begin to wear out Sophie - until she decides to give up her legal profession and switch to the police force. Three years later, Sophie takes up her position as a prospective investigator, in the team of Gabriel Deville, the department headed by her husband. Together with Commissioners Amina Dequesne and Fred Fontaine, she follows the mysterious murder of a surgeon. The young professional does not believe in the guilt of the main suspect, a petty criminal drug dealer. She confidently contributes her experience as a successful criminal defense attorney and does not meet with much enthusiasm from her colleagues. The fact that she used to be little picky about her clients now catches up with Sophie in an unexpected way, but then another murder confronts the investigators with new puzzles.—ARD Das Erste
