Croatie, janvier 1992. En plein conflit yougoslave, Chris, jeune journaliste suisse, est retrouvé assassiné dans de mystérieuses circonstances. Il était vêtu de l’uniforme d’une milice étrangère. Anja Kofmel était sa cousine. Petite, elle admirait ce jeune homme ténébreux. Devenue adulte, elle décide d'enquêter pour découvrir ce qui s’est passé et comprendre l'implication réelle de Chris dans un conflit manipulé par des intérêts souvent inavoués.
