Behind the Berlin Wall a dissident is on the trail of a killer 1993. After forty years of communist rule it's time for change in the GDR. Direct democracy, citizen's movements and de-centralization are changing the political landscape. But when a politician's crushed body is found a constitutional crisis erupts. Former dissident, Martin Grobe, is caught up in an investigation that points towards the KGB, the Stasi and the West Germans—but is it really the start of a putsch against the new GDR, or just a murder?
