Overview

Natascha Klein was a dazzling personality. The "Pope Joan of Love", who is also valued by the press, has just celebrated the twenty millionth customer of her Internet partner agency Lovecast. Now she was found dead in her office. Next to the corpse is an envelope with 50,000 euros: obviously someone had a very personal account with the young woman. Could a disappointed customer have taken revenge on the agency boss? Detectives Ballauf and Schenk are investigating in all directions. Apparently several women had recently fallen victim to a marriage swindler and been cheated out of significant amounts of money. This is reported by Lovecast Managing Director Gerd Machnow. Natascha Klein's husband Jörg Klein was also disappointed with his relationship in a different way. However, since he was on a business trip at the time of the crime, he has an alibi. Prosecutor von Prinz recommends Ballauf and Schenk to investigate undercover. A dangerous assignment for her new temporary assistant Gabi, who volunteers as a decoy. Your personal ad on Lovecast will not go unanswered for long...

About the show

Tatort is a long-running German/Austrian/Swiss crime television series set in various parts of these countries. The show is broadcast on the channels of ARD in Germany, ORF 2 in Austria, and SF1 in Switzerland. The first episode was broadcast on November 29, 1970. The opening sequence for the series has remained the same throughout the decades, which remains highly unusual for any such long-running TV series to date. Each of the regional TV channels that together form ARD, plus ORF and SF, produces its own episodes, starring its own police inspector, some of which, like the discontinued Schimanski, have become cultural icons. The show appears on DasErste and ORF 2 on Sundays at 8:15 p.m. and currently about 30 episodes are made per year. As of March 2013, 865 episodes in total have been produced. Tatort is currently being broadcast in the United States on the MHz Worldview channel under the name Scene of the Crime.
