Bachelor commissioner Emil Perica expected to be promoted chief detective of the Split police, but against their better judgment the chief gives the job to half-German Branka Maric. Their next case is the apparent robbery-murder of Ante Remic, who beached up in Split port after gambling way his meager family savings. The investigation focuses on his post-Yugoslavian civil war past as CO of a Croatian dependence fighters band after someone breaks into his home and steals all war memorabilia. The murder soon after of a war comrade apparently leaves only present real estate tycoon Jerko Novak, who suggests it's all about Remic's alleged war crime as sadistic "devil of Split", the other two being missing or died in action. One was Branka's sibling, whom she and her surviving brother assumed died in action years earlier, now being told he fell days before the end of the war. After Emil and colleague Borko trap a junkie who confesses Ante's fatal robbery, the team suspects that was a staged diversion, and goes after an alternative, financial motive. That proves dangerous, luring the killer into action, but also awakes surprise help.

In his luxury summer house, the Split police finds the corpse of sex symbol Goran Trevic, son adulated football legend Dragan Trevic, now a leading league official, and to the brass's horror a logical suspect as the murder weapon stems from his private vault. Branka Maric finds more family troubles. Dragan is also pointed at by his authorized biographer, sports reporter Stipe Rif. Dragan Trevic is shot in the head in his car, apparently suicide. Police chief Bilic orders the case closed, to avoid further scandal, but Branka's team informally searches on in both cases, calling in markers with forensics. Goran's widow, Jasna Trevic, hides her affair and his heavy, chemically emasculating medication without health need.
