Soon after returning from the US, mountain guide Andrea is asked to lead a rescue expedition in her home village. The person missing only happens to be the richest woman in the valley, wife of constructor Werner Baumberger. When they find her, she is dead, fatally hit by falling stones according to the doctor. But Andrea’s father Robert, a retired police officer, is convinced of foul play and that Baumberger murdered his wife.
