Overview

Beissl has become quite fond of dogs. He actually believes that dogs have no place in the police station. But Spezl is special and is in shock. His owner was bludgeoned to death – with a spade, as forensic pathologist Sonja Bitterling soon discovers. Werner Murrer, founder and trainer of the Berchtesgaden Search and Rescue Dog Association, lay dead in the parking lot of his dog club, guarded by Spezl. His girlfriend, Josefine Scheffler, is stunned: Werner and his dog handler teams had saved nearly 100 lives and had no enemies. Mountain farmer Josef Holler is an exception. He blames the deceased for his wife Uli being in a wheelchair. And then there's Lilly Wengert, who is angry because her dog Zeus wasn't good enough for Murrer's dog unit.

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.
