This suspenseful story plays out in Germany and Switzerland and begins with what DCS Frank Kruger and his CID team believe to be a simple investigation. Soon, however, it grows in complexity when he comes up against a network of unscrupulous business overlords and a professional killer who is as elusive and clever as the fabled Scarlet Pimpernel. As Kruger begins to unravel the complexities of the case, a web of deceit and deception, secrets and lies emerges, and he is confronted with a conspiracy whose top dog, an attractive, shrewd and egomaniacal woman, will go to any length to become queen of the fashion hill. Revenge is sweet but she isn't. And to stand in her way is toxic.
