Plot Summary

Maren feels very much at peace in her new home. Her relationship with her father is improving and her son comes to Munich from New York for a research project. But the ex-banker can't really rejoice, because the financial situation is still tense. A creditor holds promissory bills from Bertramshof, which he sells on to a wealthy sausage manufacturer. When it turns out that the new co-owner is closely related to Maren's father Maximilian, the financial difficulties are compounded by unexpected family problems.
