Blood Ties In sleepy Flemish small town Vredegem (Dutch for 'peaceville'), the brothers Thomas and Matthias Dewitt risk having to close down their inherited insurance agency, which ails since their father's death. Honoring the fat life insurance of Jean-Claude Delcorps would surely sink them, so they're determined to contest it and investigate his death. The widow and especially her four sisters, who all hated their brother in law, are a sanctimonious cesspit of secrets, including jean-Paul's fatally staged car accident. Asian Gang Wang also attends the funeral vindictively. |

Inferno The brothers Dewit continue their investigation, wondering about the earlier fire claim, while Mathias even dates one of the suspect sisters. Indeed, the Goethals girls remember how Eva first took charge of an attempt to eliminate Jean-Claude, merely on account of inappropriate behavior concerning a company quiz, while they and even his daughter conspired shamelessly against him to ruin his Ardennes charity weekend. The girls however failed to kill him, only the chalet perished in their arson attempt. |

Liver Day The brothers DeWit continue their insurance fraud thesis investigation with another sister, nurse Veerle, but leave none the wiser. Yet she too had a motive since Jean-Claude discovered her adultery and threatened to inform her unsuspecting husband, paramedic Wout. She sanctimoniously refused to join the failed arsonist sisters' next plan, poisoning, but eagerly advises against mushrooms, coming up with a non-suspicious hospital drug. Yet the attempt on Jean-Claude's life on his monthly liver dinner day fails when the dog eats what no human house-mate ever touches. |
