In the Danish port city of Belgesund, the caretaker of a private high school has fallen victim to murder. Detective Thomsen takes on the case and finds that behind the clean facade there are abysses. He has five suspects in mind: the teacher Berling, who is having a relationship with a student, the twin brother and sole heir of the murdered man, the murdered man's shady roommate, the primary school teacher Klaus Erikson and his brother Jakob.
Reviews
The first half hour promises one of those pleasant, "Agatha Christie like" detective stories, but with the investigation on its way the story gets more and more out of control, leaving a lot of loose ends when the case is finally solved. Director Kurt Hoffmann and fine cast are willing, but the subject is just too weak.
