action

In Jachenau , two forest workers find the dead Sepp Mössmer and bring him home with their tractor. His hands show signs of ankle and he choked on vomit because he was gagged. Forensic doctor Dr. Robert Sprung also notes that there are lots of ants of an extremely rare species all over the body, which only occur from an altitude of 1500 meters. There are no anthills for miles around where the corpse was found, so the dead person was moved after the crime.

When Commissioner Benno Berghammer discovered the same ants among his mother Resi's freshly picked mushrooms, the crime scene was quickly found: two trees with a rope and an anthill in between.

The search for a motif leads the commissioner and his colleague Sabrina Lorenz once more into the atmosphere of the building contractor Anton Ramboldt, who wants to set up an exclusive hunting recreation center in Jachenau. Since Rambold encountered bitter resistance from most of the residents of Jachenau when buying the necessary land, he bought the goodwill of several farmers and the mayor by paying bribes. There are other incidents in this context: A dead animal with a threatening letter in its mouth is hung on the front door of Rambold and someone willing to sell; Rambold's district forester is subjected to the same ant torture by two hooded figures as the dead man was subjected to; and Commissioner Berghammer also receives a threatening letter.

The community leader Johann Mayr finds himself in a dilemma because of his corruptibility: on the one hand dependent on Ramboldt, on the other hand indebted to his homeland. In order to free himself from this, he organized a Haberfeld drift during the project presentation at Rambold's hut - with fatal consequences: his son Blasius was shot with a shotgun and seriously injured. He brings Blasius to his alpine hut and offers to fetch a doctor, but his son refuses for fear of the consequences and wants a pastor to accept his confession because he sees his end approaching. Johann Mayr, for his part, confesses to the village pastor and asks him to donate the anointing of the sick to his son , but the latter demands that the mayor first tell the police everything that angry Mayr leaves the church.

In the meantime, mountain hikers have found the seriously injured Blasius Mayr and dialed the emergency number. Commissioner Berghammer gives the village police officer Korbinian Pföderl the order to get the Jachenau hunting association together for a meeting within an hour. With the mayor in tow, the commissioners arrive at the meeting. Benno Berghammer reads out the names of those who sold a property to Rambold - most recently Johann Mayr. The mayor is knocked down and in the ensuing turmoil he takes flight, the pack rushes after him. Nikolaus Riesch remains behind and confesses to being responsible for Sepp Mössmer's ant torture. The commissioners find it difficult to stop the mob from lynching the mayor. When Berghammer and Lorenz find him, he stands on an abyss and threatens to jump if someone approaches. Johann Mayr admits the corruption swamp and that he instigated Nikolaus Riesch together with Blasius to intimidate Sepp Mössmer; he deeply regrets his death. When Berghammer informed him that the hospital had predicted that his son had good chances of survival, the mayor replied that it would have been better if Blasius had died, especially since his own father had fucked him. To the dismay of the commissioners, he steps to the edge of the cliff and plunges into the depths.
