Ahmed interrupts. "I have to ask you bluntly: Who is this he so-called missing

Dane, like what was his profession here?"
“He was in advertising, and one of the best ones known in the industry; he was

excellent at the job, which could be the reason why the police in Denmark chose

to downplay the importance of the case - for the sake of the family. Everyone

as the German police force. For obvious reasons, we do not know where he is at

the moment, but a woman who is recently divorced the owner of one of
Germany's largest corporations, filed some in effects, that didn’t belong to her

when the division of property was made. Coincidentally, a forensic investigator

discovered that a few of the jewellery-pieces that she was turning in had been
reported missing for years – and highly sought after. ”

Karin breaks in. "Excuse me, miss. But jewellery - what does this have to do

with stolen art?"
“Yes, it’s a messy matter, we know. But the jewellery has proven to belong to the

Czar of Russia and is several hundred years old and considered absolutely
irreplaceable. It’s Russian cultural heritage. A quick assessment, you can
