EPISODE 1.1 (WaPo Duisburg) | 50m | Open in IMDB | | / 7.3 (11)
Crime |
Arda Turan, a former competitive swimmer, has just started her service with the Duisburg Water Police, and the first body has already been found. Stefan Buhl is lying dead on the edge of the harbor. What Carsten Heinrich of the Criminal Investigation Department quickly identifies as a fatal work-related accident raises doubts for Gerhard Jäger, who was transferred from the homicide squad to the "WaPo" as a disciplinary measure. A glance at the body tells him it was murder. But leaving the investigation to the Criminal Investigation Department? - No chance. Jäger secretly sets out to solve the case with his colleagues Frank van Dijk, who prefers to drive through the harbor basin at high speed, Arda Turan, and secretary Lena, and quickly comes up with a suspect. Stefan Buhl and his ex-wife Jessica were having an affair: Could her new partner Markus Franke have killed him out of jealousy? Or was it Captain Willem Dekker and dockworker Fred Kucholski who got Stefan Buhl out of the way after he discovered their drug dealings? When Carsten Heinrich gets wind of the investigation and goes to snitch to "WaPo" head Maria Kruppka, it seems as if his efforts will be in vain. But then Jäger has an idea.
