Overview

In the Tyrolean mountains, a Black African asylum seeker is found murdered. The investigation by the local criminal police—led by Inspector Pfurtscheller—hits a dead end. Using the pretext that the crime might be a politically motivated assassination, Pfurtscheller manages to persuade the Ministry of the Interior to assign his old acquaintance—the Viennese special investigator Moritz Eisner—to this explosive case.

The brilliant researcher—and head of department at the company Ultra Light Car (ULC)—was on the verge of completing a multi-million-dollar project: the development of a revolutionary new material for the automotive industry—a global first. Upon arriving at ULC, Detective Eisner encounters a tense and volatile atmosphere; the socially inept Jakobi was, to put it mildly, far from popular among his staff. Moreover, the very future of the company hinges on the success of his project. Episode 21: Man Overboard 2006-09-10 | 90 min Commissioner Borowski is on his way home from a fishing holiday when he is called for help at an unusual point: in the middle of the sea, on the way from Sweden to Germany, the captain of the ferry has disappeared without a trace. Borowski had seen him shortly before, when Captain Venske had been arguing with his First Officer Björndahl at the bar. Borowski has all the passengers on the ferry screened and reconstructs the captain's last hours. Even the first trace is strange: someone has opened the pilot door - the signal for an emergency. Did Captain Venske leave voluntarily, was it suicide, accident or murder? Episode 12 2006-05-07 | 90 min Episode 22 2006-09-24 | 90 min Episode 11 2006-04-23 | 90 min Episode 23 2006-10-01 | 90 min
