There will be, as with the previous season, ten double episodes, with each investigation stretching over two episodes. In each episode, Byl and his team will be on the trail of a serial killer; however, there will be an overarching storyline through the entire season: a psychopath with a wide circle of influential people in a stranglehold.

The cast returning for the fourth season includes Waldemar Schultz (Byl), Marvin-Lee Beukes (Juan Stuurman), Milan Murray (Nicki Swanepoel), Trudy van Rooy (Shani Stuurman), and Lika Berning (Lena Stuurman). They have to pick up the broken pieces after the death of their colleague, Fritz Barnard (Eric Nobbs).
