The Köpenick pharmacist Stephanie Lindner is shot at close range on her waterfront property - anything but an ordinary case, because Dr. Jan Conrad, forensic pathologist at the Berlin WaPo, hears the fatal shot from afar and finds the dead woman. The victim was his best friend. Why had she called him early in the morning shortly before her death and was so keen to meet him? Jan seems more than shocked, and her husband Markus, who is financially dependent on his wife, vehemently denies having anything to do with her death. And the case does indeed take an unusual turn: During their research into the dead woman's working environment, the investigators find evidence of irregularities in the manufacture of cancer drugs. In case of doubt, this is a clue of enormous proportions, as it would have devastating effects on patients. Oncologist Dr. Jana Wacker expresses the suspicion that the drugs may have been adulterated and thus less effective. Jan, who learns of the suspicion, is beside himself and threatens to jeopardize the investigation. Luckily, Jasmin manages to get through to him and convince him to trust her team. When the detectives follow the path of the medication, the trail leads to the father of a deceased cancer patient. In the end, Jasmin and her team come across a drama about love, dependency and the price of promised happiness.
