A man feels threatened after a bar fight when the opponents come to his remote house. He reaches for his Flobert rifle before opening the door. And what happens next raises many questions: A young person is dead - and the accusations currently range from self-defense to murder!

It has been almost three weeks since a 36-year-old businessman lost his life on the doorstep of an acquaintance. Only one shot was fired - but it was immediately fatal. The alleged perpetrator (43) is in custody on suspicion of murder. But the case remains a mystery.
