Katja Winzer, who runs her own practice as a physiotherapist, lives here with her eight-year-old son Tobias and her partner Jürgen Behrendt on a former farm. Tobias is a bright, independent and reliable boy who has a very intimate and trusting relationship with both his mother and Jürgen. When he couldn't come home from playing one evening, Katja started a round-robin campaign among friends and drove the boy's way home - with no result. Finally she turns on the police. Since the girl Levke was murdered by an unknown person in the region just a few months earlier, a large contingent of officials and volunteers immediately set off a sensational search. The desperate Katja is placed at the side of Chief Inspector Roman Maartens: The experienced police officer and family man has psychological training to look after family members in such cases and to seal them off from the sensational press. Days go by without Tobias being found. Days become weeks - between waiting, hoping and self-reproach, Katja's life is slowly but surely turning into a nightmare. While Jürgen tries to cope with the situation with alcohol and his suspicious behavior is targeted by the investigators, Roman Katja stands by her side. He even threatens to neglect his own family through his commitment and compassion. After the largest search operation in the history of the Federal Republic of Germany, weeks after Tobias' disappearance, remained unsuccessful, the police command had no choice but to abandon the search. Katja feels betrayed and disappointed. It wasn't until the sex offender who also murdered little Levke was caught that Roman came across a hot lead. He succeeds in persuading the emotionally unstable man to make a confession. For Katja this turn seems too late: she no longer sees any meaning in her life. She doesn't want to go on living without her son. Written by ARD Das Erste See less
