Commissario Grauner has done it – he’s finally taken a trip around the world with his wife Alba, while their daughter Silvia has transformed the Calm Alm into a vacation resort. On his return, Grauner hopes to ease back into life. But things take a different turn…

A fatal accident at the Ski World Cup in Val Gardena: the young local hero crashes during the race. It soon becomes clear that he was struck by a rifle bullet. The investigators discover the first clues that could lead to the perpetrator on a hunting stand. And, in the victim’s hotel room, bundles of cash are stacked in the shape of a pyramid. Commissario Grauner, Saltapepe, and Co. dive into the world of winter tourism and alpine sports – a billion-euro business teeming with ruthless hoteliers, lift operators, businessmen, sponsors, and sports officials. To track down the bad guys in this case, Grauner must brave the steep and icy slopes himself.
