Overview
The residents of Berchtesgaden are amazed – dozens of Santa Clauses are populating their town center in the middle of summer. Two men take advantage of the commotion to rob a jewelry store. Shortly afterwards, a dead Santa Claus is found. Is it one of the robbers? Who knew about the flash mob? Only when the detectives discover that an employee of the jeweler is having an extramarital affair do they come one step closer to solving this curious case.
About the show
The series revolves around Chief Inspector Benedikt Beissl (Andreas Giebel), who lives in Berchtesgaden with his wife Elisabeth and their three daughters, Maria, Johanna, and Eva. Beissl has been upholding law and order in Berchtesgaden for decades. Much to his annoyance, he is one day assigned a new colleague. Until now, the solitary inspector has preferred to work alone. His new partner, Jerry Paulsen (Peter Marton), is the son of a Black GI and a landlady from Bad Aibling. He is quite daring, a team player, and moved from Hamburg to Bavaria for love. However, Jerry's love interest happens to be Beissl's daughter, Johanna. In each episode, the two police commissioners must solve a murder in the area. The locally rooted Beissl often knows the victims, their environment, and potential perpetrators.
