A series of strange murders sets fake inspector Jonas Horak on alert: he summons Sophie Landner, who has arrested him, to join him in prison. There is a serial offender at work here who has it in for him. She has to find the donkey, because all the previous murders had to do with the story of the Bremen Town Musicians. As absurd as Horak’s logic seems at first glance, Landner must increasingly realize that the matter must be taken seriously. Deadly serious.
