A high-speed chase of a stolen BMW takes a chilling turn when the two police officers involved witness a gruesome hit-and-run. When they finally recover the abandoned vehicle, search dogs are unable to trace the thieves, but they do uncover an entirely different horror: the half-naked corpse of a young girl in a nearby root cellar. As DI Irene Huss and her colleagues struggle to put the pieces together, they discover a disturbing connection. The man whose car was stolen is none other than the victim in the hit-and-run. Could it be a strange coincidence?
