Episode 16: Rope team
After a charity event in a posh hotel on Lake Zurich, the evening's host is found murdered in his suite. Just a few days later, a top entrepreneur was found dead, tied to his rowing boat at the bottom of Lake Zurich. Both bodies have special features that point to a crime by Ndragetha and that put the Zurich police on high alert.
When Dominic Mercier, one of the organizers of the charity event, receives a threatening letter, the investigation turns into a race against time. When Isabel Grandjean examines the financial transactions with a mafia expert, she discovers a money laundering network that shows clear connections between the charity funds and the mafia.
Meanwhile, Tessa Ott is following a different lead. This leads via a boxing club to an orphanage, whose director is also murdered a short time later. Here, too, there are special traces on the corpse, which Tessa now knows how to interpret. Tessa is increasingly convinced that personal motives underlie the murders.
Episode 18: The secret lives of our children
Miriam Schenk and Paul Wolf and their almost grown children Zoé and Benno were a well-functioning patchwork family for years. The fact that there are cracks only becomes apparent when Benno's best friend Christopher is killed and the detectives Franziska Tobler and Friedemann Berg also investigate the Schenk-Wolf family's environment. Chris, they find out, was involved in the Freiburg drug scene and it seems obvious that his death had something to do with that. What did his close friend Benno know about it? After all, the two of them wanted to raise money for a trip around the world. And Zoé was also out and about with the two of them more than her parents ever noticed. Miriam and Paul's trust in their children and in each other is crumbling, while Tobler and Berg gather more and more evidence that their step-siblings are involved in dubious and increasingly dangerous financial transactions.

Episode 15: Love is Pain
When Peter Faber joins Jan Pawlak and Rosa Herzog early in the morning, the forensics team has almost finished their work. Tram driver Hamza Arkadas was stabbed during his night shift. There are no witnesses, but the images from the surveillance camera show how Arkadas was first provoked and then attacked by a young passenger. The perpetrator showed his face offensively into the camera before fleeing, but the recordings are of little help at first. He doesn't seem to be known to the police, and public prosecutor Matuschek doesn't want to go public with the pictures yet.
Rosa Herzog, who took over as acting head of the homicide squad in Faber's absence, gets support from police officer Beate Gräske. She is a “super recognizer” with the special ability to recognize faces – much better than her colleagues and the technology can do. With the help of surveillance cameras, she tracks down the perpetrator...
