Iris Broman is the new manager of the Kalla Fall group in Malmö. She has just broken up from her old life in Stockholm and moved into her half-sister's house by the sea in Ystad. On the same day that Iris starts her new job, a skull is found in the forest.

Iris gets angry that Katti's problems spill over to her. At work, the collaboration with Kerstin sizzles, but Iris refuses to let go of the Benjamin case. A medium contacts the police and claims that there is a valuable clue at the discovery site.
