Overview
The owner of a newly renovated hotel is found dead. He fell to his death from the window of his office. The safe in the office has been broken into. Everything points to a robbery-murder. Beissl and Jerry quickly come up with a possible motive: the victim consistently refused to pay the tradesmen involved in the renovation. Beissl and Jerry are confident that they will find the murderer among the cheated craftsmen. One of the victims increasingly becomes the focus of the investigation: a master carpenter who is a friend of Beissl's. But the resolute boss of the painting company is also under suspicion. Did she take the money from the safe? Both firmly reject the suspicions. But what if it wasn't one of the craftsmen? The hotel's long-time concierge also comes under scrutiny in the investigation.
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.
