As Saltsjövik reels from recent tragedies, the local tourism industry teeters on the edge of collapse. Determined to save The Beach Hotel, Vendela embarks on an ambitious transformation. But in the shadows, Rebecka and Oskar secretly conspire to take control of both hotel - and the town itself.

The grand re-opening takes a dark turn when Jens, Lilja’s ex-boyfriend, is found murdered. With little evidence to go on, newly appointed police officer Hanna Andersson faces mounting pressure as suspicions spread, further damaging the hotel's reputation. Meanwhile, journalist Jakob Hallberg arrives in town to write a book on the past tragedies - only to uncover a personal connection to Vendela. As he digs deeper, he begins to suspect that Lovisa may be his daughter. But when he discovers troubling links between Lovisa and the murdered Jens, his investigation takes a dangerous turn, exposing secrets that could have devastating consequences.
