- The notorious "Angel of St. Pauli" is back. For Chief Inspector Jan Fabel there is no doubt who is behind the gruesome murder of a 48-year-old journalist. The act is like an unexplained series of crimes that occurred ten years ago and Fabel has no rest: Somebody cut the throats of nine men, all of them sex offenders, pimps and beating husbands, and castrated them alive - as if they were for their violence should atone for women. The current victim, who has been charged with attempted rape, fits into the scheme. In order to understand the motive for revenge, Fabel does not ask the police psychologist Susanne, but his ex-girlfriend, who wrote a book about the "angel", for help. The commissioner soon realizes, however, that the case is more complex than expected: a murderess who killed in the same way before the "angel" has broken out of the closed psychiatric ward. Then, as now, she is ruled out as a perpetrator. When a second victim is found in the red-light district, Fabel's intuition sounds the alarm: Like the journalist, the murdered man had a connection to a recycling company that Simon Blohm runs with the support of his father-in-law. Is someone using the "angel" handwriting to distract from something else? Fabel has little time to find out what is really going on here.

- In the heathen "Rauhnächten" there is an unbridled exuberance in the former Viking town of Ribe. Chaos reigns even at the police station, where the conscientious patrol officer Ida Sörensen helps out on the night shift. At this moment, nobody thinks of the sadistic serial killer who kidnaps people and starves them to death in the forest. So Ida doesn't recognize Smillla Vestergaad either, who has been missing for days, was able to free herself from her shackles, now appears among all the disguised and drunk in the police station, but hardly gets a word out. When the young woman disappeared a little later, the policewoman found herself exposed to serious accusations from her older colleague Magnus Vinter. Ambitious Commissioner Olsen is certain that there is little time left to find the abductee alive. Regardless of responsibilities, Ida does everything to make up for her fatal mistake. In the case of an unexplained death 20 years ago, she suspects the starting point for the motif of the serial perpetrator, whose murders do not seem to fit into any profile. The fact that Ida dives into the past despite the greatest time pressure sounds completely absurd at first. The desperate policewoman, however, is not deterred and uncovered a tragic secret that was years ago and is now supposed to be atoned for.
