Four years ago, a bullet in the thigh destroyed Alexander Hinkel's chances of becoming a police captain. But that didn't do anything to his ability to see through a suspect's lies. On the contrary, his instincts and observations are sharper than ever. That's why his ex-colleagues still come knocking on Hinkel's door when they get stuck with investigations. In the city of Agrippa, where crime is rife, there are currently more unsolved murders than the police can handle, and Hinkel earns good money from freelance detective work. He has only one condition: He works alone.
When the body of an unknown man turns up in Hinkel's favourite bakery, the place is closed while the police investigate the murder. Fearing that the case will drag on, one of the owners comes to ask Hinkel for help. He is sure that his partner had something to do with the murder. Hinkel agrees to investigate the case, not knowing that the other partner has in the meantime also called in help... That of the attractive boxing club owner with an eye for detail: Janke Lofstat.
