Fabrizio Collini, an Italian who has worked as a toolmaker at Mercedes-Benz for 34 years, murders an old man in a luxury hotel in Berlin. The young lawyer Caspar Leinen is assigned as a public defender in this case. What initially seems like a promising opportunity for his career becomes a nightmare when he discovers that the victim is the grandfather of his best friend, a respected German industrialist. Leinen tries to understand the act, but Collini confesses to the murder and refuses to reveal his motive. Leinen must defend a man who does not want to be defended, which leads him to discover a clue that takes him into a terrifying chapter of German judicial history.
