For a change, it's not just any violent offender, but veterinarian Kauth who puts a gun to Sophie's chest: He wants to turn their affair into a tangible relationship, yes, even move in with her. Before Sophie decides, she first solves the mystery of the seriously injured electrician Poppelrath, who lies in the garden of the housewife Kafka with an inexplicable head injury and a heart attack. Is the blame for this, as many in the village think, really the newly arrived man from East Germany, who – at least in the eyes of the Hengasch people – behaves highly suspiciously? Or does the victim's pathologically jealous wife have a hand in it? And is there a crime at all?
