Ballauf - 47 - Schmale Schultern

Overview

Jens Otten can't believe it: his fiancée Regina Scheffler was murdered. Unknown people pushed her off the balcony, vandalized her apartment and covered it with graffiti. Similar incidents of vandalism had been happening in the area recently. But now the homicide detective is investigating.

But Patrick's father, Ralf Cosca, knew the murdered woman better than he initially wanted to admit. Regina Scheffler called him three times on the night of the murder...
