One May morning in 2024, the police are called to the small community of Gyttorp outside Nora in Västmanland where a lifeless woman has been found in the countryside. The case quickly escalates when it turns out that the dead person is instead a man who has been beaten and burned. A burnt-out car is also found a short distance away. The investigation eventually leads the police to a farm where a party seems to have gone awry. But the question is - which of the partygoers is guilty and why does anyone want the man dead?
