Erich Sassbeck ist zur falschen Zeit am falschen Ort und gerät in eine brutale Schlägerei. Doch am Ende ist er es, der überlebt, während seine Angreifer tot sind – erschossen von unbekannter Hand. Sassbeck glaubt, dass ihn ein Wunder gerettet hat. Die Polizei dagegen fragt sich, ob nicht er geschossen hat. In Notwehr. Oder schlimmer: in Selbstjustiz. Der Journalist Ingo Praise findet bald Beweise, dass Sassbecks Geschichte stimmt. Ein Unbekannter streift durch die Stadt und beschützt Unschuldige. Praise macht den »Todesengel« zum Star – und löst damit eine Katastrophe aus ...
