Episode 1
When the body of a young woman is found on the shore of a remote lake, Inspector Berger believes he has recognized Viktoria, who has been missing for 18 years. But the dead woman hasn’t aged a day. Berger also suspects a connection to the unsolved disappearance of his former wife, Elli, who vanished without a trace at the same time. Meanwhile, 17-year-old Selin, who suffers from unexplained blackouts, shows up in town, and Henri is searching for his brother Sandro, who has been plagued by nightmares for weeks.
Episode 2
Berger discovers a fresh, rune-like wound on the dead woman and, despite resistance from his colleague Swantje, wants to have the lake searched for the black water. Yasemin tries to piece together what Selin did during her blackouts. While Henri searches the town for Sandro and is met with silence from the locals, Berger’s heavily pregnant wife, Liv, is startled by a stranger.
Episode 3
After the search of the lake yields no answers, Berger turns to Albert, who strongly warns him against continuing his investigation. Yasemin and Selin follow Viktoria’s trail. While Selin feels strangely at home in the town, Yasemin is unsettled by the locals’ conspicuous friendliness. Henri locates Sandro’s cell phone near the lake and follows the signal deep underground.
Episode 4
As the investigation progresses, the trust between Berger and Swantje begins to falter. Berger follows Henri’s clues and Albert’s cryptic notes into the town’s occult past. Yasemin and Selin search Viktoria’s abandoned childhood home. Their investigation leads them to the hospital, where they uncover a connection to Berger’s first wife, Elli. Meanwhile, Liv is haunted by her own past.
Episode 5
Berger is growing increasingly suspicious and just wants to get his wife Liv and their newborn baby out of town as quickly as possible. He sets out to track down Sandro, who apparently knows more about the events surrounding Elli. Meanwhile, Yasemin is fighting for her life after an accident and seems to have lost Selin. Albert wants to flee town before the new moon, but before he can leave, he receives an uninvited visitor.
Episode 6
The Moon Turn is imminent. Berger and Yasemin are doing everything they can to save their children, while Sandro and Albert search for a way to prevent the inevitable. But Berger’s adversaries are determined to see the centuries-old ritual through to the end.
