During a secret rendezvous on the decommissioned cutter "Wilhelmina," a couple makes a gruesome discovery in a locker: the mummified body of a man with a glass eye. Finn Kiesewetter and his team determine that the dead man's name is Klaas Ehlers, who until two years ago worked in the accounting department of the Hansen shipping company, to which the old ship belongs. In the pathology department, Strahl determines that Ehlers has been dead for over a year. He was locked in the locker after a blow to the head and died of thirst. The sympathetic shipping company boss, Hansen, who has been wheelchair-bound since a serious accident and was abandoned by his wife shortly thereafter, seems to have no memory of his former employee. Hansen is worried about his mentally ill twelve-year-old daughter Klara, who hasn't spoken a word for two years. What role does Britta Ehlers, the victim's ex-wife, play, who left accountant Ehlers for the African woman Elizette Mukabi? Elizette's behavior is also strange: she never reported her partner missing. Who had a reason to kill Ehlers? The interrogations don't really get the investigators anywhere. While Lars Englen is convinced of Britta Ehlers's guilt, Finn continues to investigate in every direction. His persistence eventually leads him to the trail of the perpetrator. However, tensions are high between Finn and Elke Rasmussen. She accuses him of not really committing to their relationship and not wanting to move in with her. Finn, in turn, doesn't like Elke spending so much time with Lars Englen.
