Sarah Lund, now officially in charge of the investigation into the murder of Anne Dragsholm, discovers a connection between the lawyer and the career soldier Allan Myg Poulsen, who was also brutally murdered. Just as in the first case, there is a video showing the victim shortly before his death, which strengthens the suspicion that the crimes were committed by an Islamist terrorist group seeking revenge. Sarah Lund, however, does not believe this and is convinced that there is another reason for the murders.
