Baantjer - Season 12 (2006)

Leo Gans's international accountancy firm branch's employee Carmen van den Bergh tells at the precinct she beliefs a car deliberately tried to run her down after she noticed serious aberrations in one of shady businessman Lars Hoek's firms' books, but refuses to show the proof. Iris De Graaf, on duty, accompanies Carmen to Harry Breugel's motel, where she's murdered the next night. Screening the accounts and clients, De Cock finds Iris held back crucial information, linking Carmen to a traumatic hold-up with bloodshed 20 years ago, and even a visit that night. He ...

After presumed key-witness Harry Breugel's staged suicide, suspended Iris comes clean about the harp tattoos linking these cases to her bloody burglary trauma and continues her parallel 'investigation', almost leading to loss of evidence. De Cock no longer believes it's about money laundering but links it to accountancy branch chief Leo Gans and his wife's dark past, and not just theirs.

De Cock's sister has died in her retirement home in Urk. During the funeral, De Cock sees "Here lies the seed of Satan" painted on her grave. Back in Amsterdam, a similar text is painted on his house. Meanwhile, Vledder's father is attacked in Vledder's house, and a woman who accused Keizer of sexual abuse, even providing a semen sample, is found dead, leading Keizer to be suspected of the murder. On top of everything, De Cock's wife is assaulted and ends up in the hospital, unconscious.
