- Synopsis
- A dark shadow is hanging over Inspector Nick Cafmeyer’s life and relationships. Since age 9, Nick has been haunted by the unsolved disappearance of his younger brother Bjorn. Based on Nick’s testimony, their neighbor, Plettinckx, a known sex offender, was questioned but soon released. After all these years, Plettinckx still lives close by, and takes fiendish pleasure in harassing Nick. Nick’s chief, Danni, is reluctant to involve Nick in a very disturbing case: a couple has been held captive for three days by an intruder. The intruder has vanished without a trace, along with their 9 year old son Robin. Nick heads a massive search and turns it into a relentless manhunt.
