Ambitious doctor Clemens Hoffmann wants to take some time out before his next career move and fulfill his long-cherished dream of sailing around the world on a boat for a year. Shortly before his departure, an accident thwarts his plans.

In the meantime he has developed a reputation as a particularly good interrogation specialist and is therefore called in by the police in special cases.
