Im toten Winkel: Gregor Neuss is an ambitious journalist who knows what makes a really good story. When the authorities present the alleged perpetrator just a few hours after a fatal robbery, Gregor suspects a serious miscarriage of justice. The charges brought before the court do not match what Gregor saw with his own eyes shortly before the crime. Since the police and the public prosecutor's office show no interest in his testimony, Gregor begins to investigate the case himself. Eventually, the full extent of the crime is revealed, putting Gregor, his colleagues, and his most important source in danger.
