Wolfsland - Tief im Wald
A month has passed since "Butsch", the loner from Oberlausitz, and Viola Delbrück, the detective from Hamburg, stopped a young criminal couple. Despite this success, the mood between the detectives is worse than ever. But right now they are in demand as a team, because a serial offender seems to be on the loose in Görlitz, targeting young, attractive female joggers. However, Viola Delbrück's biggest problem is not "Butsch", but her husband, who is trying to settle into his wife's new life - also professionally. But "Butsch" senses danger and trusts his own instincts.
