Das Prequel zum erfolgreichen Cold-Case-QuartettEs ist das Jahr 1983. William Wisting, gerade Vater von Zwillingen geworden, ist ein ehrgeiziger junger Streifenpolizist und träumt davon, eines Tages als Ermittler bei der Mordkommission zu arbeiten. Während einer Nachtschicht verfolgt er einen Bankräuber, doch diesem gelingt die Flucht. Erfahrenere Kollegen übernehmen den Fall, Wisting soll sich lieber mit einem von Kugeln zerfetzten Oldtimer in einer baufälligen, vergessenen Scheune befassen. Wisting stürzt sich in die Ermittlungen - und bis auf diesen begabten Streifenpolizisten ahnt niemand, dass die beiden Fälle zusammenhängen.

William Wisting bekommt einen äußerst heiklen Auftrag: Im idyllischen Wochenendhaus eines an Herzinfarkt plötzlich verstorbenen Spitzenpolitikers wurden Umzugskisten mit achtzig Millionen Kronen gefunden. Die Kisten standen im innersten, fensterlosen Raum des Hauses. Stammt das Geld etwa aus einem Raubüberfall, der fast zwanzig Jahre zurückliegt? Unterstützung bekommt Wisting von Adrian Stiller, der sich gerade mit dem ungeklärten Verschwinden des möglichen Täters befasst. Doch wie gelangte das Geld in den Besitz des Politikers? Oder stammt es gar aus einer ganz anderen Quelle?
