A former police cadet, Tea Lind, played by Clara Dessau, gets a chance to join the force through an undercover operation. She poses as a luxury jeweler to gather information on Denmark’s biggest cocaine dealer. However, her mission takes a complicated turn when she discovers Ashley’s boyfriend is losing control of his empire.
