Split Homicide: Die Patin von Privonice

SYNOPSIS

Stascha Novak takes on a murder case in which she doesn't have to search long for a coherent motive. The victim, the abusive restaurant manager Ivan Kalinic, not only treated the Romanian waitress Adina badly, but also tried to rape her. The main suspect disappeared the morning after the bloody act. Her friend Danijel Vida and his buddy Tin, seasonal workers in Kalinic's team, also left headlong to their Dalmatian hometown Privonice. Stascha drives there with her colleague Emil to interrogate the two of them and trace the trace of Adina who has gone into hiding. Official assistance is provided by Danijel's father, who, as the local police chief, leads the search operation. However, Adina seems to have been swallowed by the earth. During her investigation, Stascha finds out that all traces of the case converge in Privonice - from the victim to the suspect to the other parties involved. The 70-year-old entrepreneur Dunja Runje plays a central role, is well connected with everyone and has her fingers in the game everywhere. She even seems to be making money from trafficking in young women, in which Adina is also involved. Stascha doesn't just want to find the suspect in order to solve the case. The commissioner fears for the lives of the suspects - and undertakes a daring solo effort.
