Der Schwarze Mann

Twelve-year-old Sven Reimer (Daniel Spies) is found dead in a forest at a children's holiday camp near Regensburg. Commissioner Ellen Lucas (Ulrike Kriener) and her team are called to the crime scene. At first it all looks like a tragic accident, but investigators quickly uncover forensic evidence pointing to murder. The Lucas team is investigating under high pressure.

After Ellen Lucas observes that the foster child Tim (Sandro Ianotta) reacts anxiously, she turns to the boy.
