- Conti hat eine Zeit der persönlichen Krisen und der schmerzvollen Selbstreflektion hinter sich. Doch als sie von dem Wirbel um die bekannte, junge Mutter und Musikerin Elisabeth "Liz" Jordan Wind bekommt, erwacht der noch in ihr schlummernde Kampfgeist und Sinn für Gerechtigkeit. Der Sängerin wird vorgeworfen, ihren Säugling in der Badewanne ertränkt zu haben. Als bereits bekannte "Rabenmutter" wird sie von der Presse und auf Social Media öffentlich bloßgestellt und schonungslos (vor-)verurteilt - eine Erfahrung, die Anwältin Conti unfreiwillig mit der jungen Frau verbindet. Sie übernimmt den Fall, und die Verteidigung wird für die einstige Staranwältin zum Comeback. Im Prozess um den Mord an der kleinen Zara steht Conti ihrer einstigen Referendarin Henry Mahn gegenüber. Für die junge Staatsanwältin ist es der erste Fall. Sie will keine Fehler machen. Für Conti steht Henrys erster Fehler jedoch schon fest: Zu Unrecht wurde Liz vorschnell in U-Haft gesteckt und damit in der Öffentlichkeit für Stimmung und Hetze gesorgt. Doch kurz bevor der Haftrichter Liz' Freilassung gewährt, spricht diese plötzlich ein klares Geständnis aus und lässt ihre Verteidigerin in einer scheinbar aussichtslosen Position zurück. Mit Liz in U-Haft und Matt Westphal, dem Musikproduzenten und Kindsvater, als Nebenkläger steht Conti nicht nur vor einem besonders verzwickten Fall, sondern auch selbst wieder im Rampenlicht. Gemeinsam mit ihrem Schützling Carlo, der es sich im vergangenen Jahr in ihrer schicken Kanzlei an der Alster wohnlich eingerichtet hat, vertieft sich Conti in die Recherche und Verteidigungsstrategie. Dabei stoßen die beiden auf Liz' wohlgehütetes Geheimnis.

- Everything runs like clockwork for the Jens family: Hanna and Martin are extremely happily married, their son Paul is a bright, funny eleven-year-old boy. Professionally, too, things are going well: Both are employed in managerial positions in a Hamburg shipyard, Hanna in quality management, Martin in the development department. Everything is fine the way it is. And then it gets even better. Because completely surprisingly, Hanna is promoted to second managing director by junior boss Bernd Möller. A recognition that Hanna would never have dreamed of. And Martin is overjoyed, too, as he now sees the necessary funds for the development of his passion project, a revolutionary fuel cell, within reach with Hanna's support. Of course not all that glitters is gold. Because what Hanna didn't know, the traditional shipyard is on the verge of bankruptcy. Hanna has to go through a tough austerity course, which Martin's project also falls victim to. Sworn to secrecy by junior boss Möller, Hanna cannot confide in her angry, disappointed husband. Thick storm clouds are now hanging over the former picture-book family, which are becoming even darker because of Martin's widowed, headstrong father Willfried, who has temporarily moved in with them. For Willfried, the mere fact that not Martin but Hanna became boss is an impossibility; that she is now also - apparently - deliberately sabotaging his son, another sign of the completely wrong course of the modern world. Where will this all end? First of all, in a veritable marriage crisis of the former dream couple. While Martin seeks encouragement from a young colleague, Hanna wears herself out in her fight for the shipyard and slowly discovers that someone is playing the wrong cards in order to enrich themselves from the ruin of the shipyard. But it seems too late to try to save both the shipyard and their marriage.
