IN A GUESTHOUSE CUT OFF FROM THE WORLD, A MURDER IS COMMITTED – AND ANYONE COULD BE THE KILLER. The year is 2006. Beata Drejer, a young prosecutor, begins her career in law enforcement under the guidance of an experienced investigator, Gerard Edling. From him she learns an art in which he is a pioneer – reading body language. During a training trip, a storm cuts off the guesthouse on the Vistula Spit where they are staying – and in a room locked from the inside, the body of a teenager is discovered. It soon becomes clear that the culprit is one of the guests. The problem is that all of them are connected with law enforcement and know how to avoid detection. Yet none of them would have any reason to take the life of a child. So who attacked the victim? Why? And how did the killer manage to leave both the door and the windows locked from the inside?
