Split Homicide: Tote Mädchen

ÖZET

The body of a drowned girl is found in the industrial port of Split. For Branka Maric there is no doubt that the twelve-year-old was the victim of a crime. Show traces on her wrist: The drowned woman was previously tied up - possibly by smugglers who kidnap girls and sell them to their tormentors. Branka doesn't give a damn about the instructions to leave the investigation to the organized crime department. Little did the Commissioner suspect how dangerous the case is for her when she went on to investigate on her own. During the night a bomb explodes on her lover Lado's yacht - with Branka on board. In order to solve the attack, the homicide squad receives unwelcome support from the capital: the successful, but unpopular detective Stascha Novak with her male colleagues. She wants to continue her track record with the spectacular case in order to force the overdue promotion in Zagreb. The division in Split, however, would like the case to be resolved by the domestic forces. Emil gets into a quandary: He and his colleague Borko should let Stascha run into the void.
