Even in retirement, Commissario Grauner cannot escape the world of crime when a guest is found shot dead in his daughter's hotel.
Now officially retired, Commissario Grauner is thoroughly bored spending his days guiding tourists around his mountain pastures. His forced relaxation comes to an end when his daughter Sara calls from a high-end luxury hotel in Oberbozen on the Ritten plateau. A horrific murder has occurred: an international negotiator has been shot dead inside the resort. The hotel had been hosting a secret, high-level diplomatic summit aimed at resolving a seemingly intractable, decades-long border dispute. When Sara reveals that her boyfriend Mickey witnessed the armed assassin fleeing the suite - and has now vanished into the dark forests after being pursued by the killer - Grauner must decide whether to step back or launch an unauthorized, high-stakes investigation of his own.
