Led to a crime scene by a mysterious video, she discovers a man ritualistically hanging in a secret room and a puzzling inward-curving inscription.

Hana Westerman è una donna tenace. A quarant'anni non ancora compiuti è già capo di una squadra investigativa: una brillante carriera che rischiara l'ombra che la opprime da quando, giovanissima, si è schierata contro la comunità maori in cui è cresciuta ad Auckland, Nuova Zelanda. Un giorno come tanti, riceve una mail anonima con un filmato amatoriale in allegato. Un video apparentemente privo di senso, brevissimo, girato di notte, che inquadra l'interno di un edificio fatiscente, inagibile da anni e ormai dimora di senzatetto e tossicodipendenti.

Anwältin Stephanie hat einen schweren Fall von Wirtschaftskriminalität auf dem Tisch. Da es eine Verbindung zu einem Swinger-Club gibt, stattet Stephanie diesem zusammen mit einer jungen Kollegin einen Besuch ab. Was die beiden dort an Sex und Hingabe sehen, verschlägt ihnen den Atem. Ohne es zu wollen, überkommt sie die Lust und sie lassen sich von diesem erotischen Abenteuer - ganz im Sinne des zu lösenden Falles - sexuell mitreißen...

Der Tod vergisst nicht. Als Polizistin in Auckland und getrennt lebende Mutter einer Teenie-Tochter, hat Hana Westerman sich angewöhnt, stets nach vorn zu blicken.
