Inconspicuous precinct officer Nordmark apparently shoots himself, but Beck, once his first partner, finds he led a secret life as lusty closet gay, the MO doesn't fit, nor does the suicide note - it was staged by someone who ignored his reading disorder. The commissioner wants all efforts to collaborate with the financial crimes unit to arrest tax-sinning crime king 'Money Man' Gavling, but Beck's team finds Normark must have been his precinct informer. The keys to the case are gay club bird Leonard, who recently dumped Nordmark, and Beck's first case, when Gavling still did his own dirty jobs. The gloves come off on both sides.
