The body is found between the Russian town of Ivangorod and the Estonian city of Narva. The police forces of the two countries investigating the incident find that the upper part of the corpse belongs to a student from St. Petersburg and the lower part to a waitress from Tallinn. The Russian Investigator is Maxim Kazantsev, the Estonian is Inspector Inge Veermaa. Together they investigate a series of crimes that are well prepared, skillfully executed and contain a "message" to society on the subject of social injustice.
