Private investigator Vares takes on a new case, sensing something amiss despite the allure of his client's stunning wife. A sudden gunshot disrupts the summer air, altering Vares' investigation. As he delves deeper, he encounters a web of clues that lead him from quaint second-hand bookstores to a gym linked to a drug-smuggling operation from Stockholm.
