After her parents are killed in a road accident, Inka visits the house where she grew up. She is clearing out documents, holiday souvenirs and photo albums from the cupboards and reminiscing when a neighbour rings and invites her in for breakfast. The young man calls himself Peter and is behaving strangely. Nevertheless, the two become a little closer until Inka's house is burgled and the supposed neighbour disappears overnight. Neither he nor his sports car appear in the days that follow. Inka is puzzled, just like the police, who she has called in out of fear. In the attic, she finally discovers newspaper cuttings and her father's diary - a find that reveals an unexpected secret.
