In an upscale neighbourhood, a woman is found drowned in a pool. Suspicion falls on her boyfriend, Tom, a notorious con artist and Tinder-swindler. When he unexpectedly turns himself in, he admits to fraud, but insists her death was an accident. The experienced investigator Morten Stark is convinced he's lying – and, lacking hard evidence, plays a risky game to expose him. Meanwhile, journalist Nora Sand digs through a former colleague's research and uncovers multiple past fraud cases against Tom. As she and her team trace his past, they reveal a chilling secret and uncover a tangled web of deceit, exploitation and murder.
