Police officer Dominique Tassi enjoys a happy life with his wife Manon and their two children. But one day, after an exhausting, sleep-deprived week, he has one glass too many and falls asleep at the wheel. His car veers off the road and his little girl dies in the accident. A hellish spiral follows: divorce, depression, alcoholism.
2005, Ardèche. Tassi arrests Gabin Lepage, a young man who killed a little girl named Justine after raping and torturing her.
2020, Ain. Tassi, now sober, has taken early retirement. But a crime pulls him out of his isolation: Laetitia, age 17, was killed after being raped and forced to perform strange duties.

In order to understand why, Tassi seeks the help of Nathan Rey. At 32, Rey is France’s greatest expert in serial killers. But he is also a lonely man haunted by his tragic childhood and who, each time he returns home, compulsively checks that no killer is lying in wait for him inside the cupboards, under the beds, behind the doors…
