With two months to the Winter Olympics, Selma faces the seemingly almost impossible task of clearing Morell's name.
However, when a male skier is found dead after a training accident, it becomes clear to Selma that there is something more serious at risk. Encountering corruption, hidden enmity, and shady connections, the pattern of recent crimes and ancient sins becomes undeniable. As Selma's race against time begins, she realises that more lives are at stake...
