On doctors orders to follow a relaxing course, captain Jan Reuter covers up his yoga and mud therapy in "Baltic Vital Wismar" for the colleagues by pretending he's on Canadian fishing holiday. Hiding doesn't work as he stumbles on a corpse in a mud tub, but Lars Pöhlmann who's in temporary charge agrees to discretion to use Reuter as undercover. Forensic lover Helene Sturbeck reports less sympathetic, even jealous of the fat man-eater patient. Victim Steffen Reinhard was slowly poisoned with many lead acetate doses, probably there and at home, rendering wife and mistress suspects. Steffen Reinhard's cash withdraws to a fiscal paradise were ruining his wind energy development firm, which devoted deputy Bert Hohlbein was expecting to run after his retirement.
