S05E03 Mandala
Episode Overview
Maxime Rivière, a close associate of Commissioner Bachert, is haunted by a recurring dream about the murder of a Tibetan monk. Astrid links this nightmare to the unsolved killing of llama Tulku Lingpa, which occurred on May 20, 1996, at a monastery in Île-de-France. As they travel to the site, the commissioner, who is revealed to be a Buddhist, along with Raphaëlle, Astrid, and Nicolas, uncovers unsettling details that cast doubt on the guilt of the alleged murderer, a drug addict who had been lurking in the nearby woods. Raphaëlle suggests that the actual crime took place within the monastery itself.
