In the second case, a missing child is at the center of the investigation. Mia, the four-year-old daughter of wealthy businessman Hans Thomsen (Herbert Knaup), disappears under mysterious circumstances. The family members are in shock, and it is assumed that she has been kidnapped. Inga Thomsen (Barbara Auer) tries to keep the family together, while her husband tries to find his daughter on his own. His path leads him to Rotterdam.
