The year is 1955. A valuable painting has been stolen and Dagmar is in hospital. Things are certainly not starting well for Våge this summer. Pensionat Solhöjden is fully booked and now one of the guests is suspected of having stolen a priceless treasure from the host couple. The only question now is who? Could it be Count Hökenhjelm? Because he is surely hiding something. Or his wife, the Countess? Incidentally, she seems to have something in common with Ludvig, the tramp who is going to chop up the woodpile and is temporarily living in the barn. Ester also lives at the guesthouse, who not only eats nettles but seems to have something else lurking in her binoculars. Norwegian Grete is back as the housekeeper at the guesthouse, but what has she done? And why is Inspector Grip so incredibly happy to see her. Calm down, just calm down. Everything will be alright with Dag-Otto's help...or will it?
