Police inspector Gerti Bruckner (Susi Stach) is facing a tough time. Her marriage to her husband Bertl (Johannes Silberschneider) is getting lost in the same old routines, and the upcoming promotion goes to her colleague Heidi (Mariam Hage), who is half her age. All in all, not the best time to investigate a murder case in her immediate neighborhood together with her young superior, which does not only bring old stories back to light - the investigations also lead closer to her personal environment than she would prefer.
