Israel, 1991. A young woman, newly arrived from the collapsing Soviet Union, is brutally murdered in Jerusalem. The investigation falls to Yehuda, a seasoned detective at Jerusalem Central Operations. As Yehuda delves into the case, he uncovers a disturbing link: a series of eerily similar murders took place in the Soviet Union throughout the 1980s, with twelve women murdered in a near-identical manner. Meanwhile, in Leningrad, Andrei learns of the investigation. Andrei is the father of a man who was wrongly accused of the Soviet murders and now sits on death row and his fate hanging by a thread. Andrei realizes that the true killer must have emigrated to Israel amidst the massive wave of Jewish immigrants. Determined to save his son, Andrei travels to Israel, joining Yehuda's investigation unofficially. As Yehuda and Andrei work together, they are forced to confront and overcome their cultural and racial biases. They find themselves navigating the fraught and unfamiliar terrain of the immigrant community, where each step brings them closer to uncovering the truth and catching the ruthless killer.
