Original synopsis

Overview

Theresa Geiger is kidnapped in a traditional manner at her own wedding, eats a cake provided for her while waiting, and dies. The coroner diagnoses an allergic shock. Her friend Cecilia, with whom Theresa ran a café, insists that she made the cake in the cabin specifically without nuts, knowing of Theresa's severe allergy. However, an almost identical cake containing nuts is missing from the café's cold storage—did someone secretly switch it with the one in the cabin? Caro, who knew Theresa, wonders who could have harmed her friend.

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.
