Her child is sold to baby traffickers, Melanie and Oliver, working for adoption agaency Bliss. Julita trails them to Denmark. She sees Rolf collecting Andrea's pram from colleague Jarl and his wife Ewa. On the ferry, Julita grabs Andrea believing she's her daughter, Hania.
Five years later, Neel catches serial rapist-murderer "Tranum Man", however his DNA is not on the police database. Rolf alerts Jarl to the problem. Jarl resolves an undiscovered systemic error. Rolf re-tests samples from Minna's case, which provides DNA link to a recent corpse, Victoria, found in France. Claire joins Rolf, Neel, Jarl and IT specialist, Staahl in re-opening Minna's case. Eventually police discover Bliss has a connecton with a youth care centre run by Bror, who also arranges his foster daughters to become surrogate mothers. Melanie's sister Victoria had argued with Oliver about handing over a baby. Oliver claims Victoria was accidentally killed. Melanie recalls that Julita's daughter had died of SIDS, so Oliver kidnapped Minna. Rolf, Claire and team find Minna, who was put up for adoption and reunite her with her mother.
