In the past, it was actually the rule that the focus was on an investigator who would take us along to look for clues on Sundays – whether it was the easy-going chief inspector Marek in Vienna or the swearing Schimanski in Duisburg. Over time, duos and teams became fashionable at the “crime scene”, so the 16th case for Mark Waschke as Chief Inspector Robert Karow is a special one: his partner, played by Meret Becker, was shot in May, the successor (Corinna Harfouch) takes her place service until 2023. So a solo for Karow, which at the same time serves as a psychogram of the often arrogant and inscrutable Berliner.
A menacing atmosphere runs through the 90 minutes. The discovery of a corpse in a wooded area indicates an execution, a milieu execution of organized crime. Actually not a case for Karow, but so much can be revealed: Maik, the murdered man, was a special friend in the investigator’s youth. Old wounds break open – and Karow becomes a loner, once morest the instructions of the public prosecutor. However, there is one ally: Camilla (Kim Riedle), who works in a mafia boss’s nightclub and knew Maik well.
A painful crime drama regarding the struggle for love and truth. And a “crime scene” worth seeing! How are they thinking?
