A half-decomposed corpse in a red dress poses a criminal mystery to inspector Stascha Novak and the investigative team from Split: The victim had been dead for at least a week when he was thrown from a great height from a rock. Not only the shattered body, but also the identity make the case seem unusual: it is a young man. For the local police chief Mikec it is clear that this could not have been a local. There are hardly any young people here anyway and certainly not transvestites. However, the homicide detective finds out that the dead Anton is from the region and grew up with his devout uncle Ivan Rukovic. In his house, the investigators find signs of Anton's decomposition. When the bodies of Mikec and Rukovic are found one after the other, Stascha begins to reconstruct Anton's tragic story with criminal empathy. She finds it difficult to contain her anger at open homophobia and pious fundamentalism. Her colleague Emil, on the other hand, keeps a cool head, delving into the family history of the victims and having to prevent Stascha from making a hasty decision.
