Overview

Ava Fleury (Ella Rumpf) is a student at an elite boarding school in the Lucerne area. She is hit by a truck on a country road at night. The driver fell asleep at the wheel and did not see the young woman in the darkness. The next day, Flückiger (Stefan Gubser) and Ritschard (Delia Mayer) arrest the suspect, Fritz Loosli (Urs Jucker). He admits that he was the driver of the vehicle and that he panicked and left the scene of the accident. At the headquarters he unexpectedly meets the dead girl's father, Laurant Fleury (Luc Feit). He vents all his grief to Loosli in an outburst of anger. One quickly suspects that Fleury does not want his daughter's death to go unpunished. After the autopsy of the corpse, however, one thing is clear: Loosli is not to blame. Ava was already dead when she was hit by his truck.
