Prophet

What begins as a completely "normal" murder investigation takes on ever wider ramifications: The shopaholic Magnus Rosponi is found beaten to death in his apartment. But neither his cheerful bowling friends nor Silke Haller, who recognizes the dead man as a teenage crush, can explain why the popular man had to die. Instead, Professor Boerne finds a strange, small object in the corpse. Thiel discovers parallel amorous entanglements. And when the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution turns up in the shady characters Muster and Mann, things get absurd. Apparently Thiel and Boerne have stirred up a hornet's nest and even attracted the attention of an assassin. But how is it all connected? And what's the story with the little dog that loves eating bananas?

One shot too many

Two prisoners on remand take a prison officer hostage and escape from the prison. In front of the main gate, Sergeant Jakobs shoots one of the escapees, the Turk Suk. Inspector Haferkamp is faced with a difficult situation, because Sergeant Wörlemann accuses his colleague Jakobs of having shot prematurely and unnecessarily. Since Jakobs denies the truth of this statement, the fugitive Tomi Selzer would be an important witness, but Tomi does not turn himself in because he does not want to go back to prison. He was innocently imprisoned, but the hostage-taking means he can expect a several-year sentence. Haferkamp uses all means to get hold of his suspicious witness. These complications almost inevitably lead to catastrophe.

Downhill

The 47-year-old business manager Kurt Wiedemann became unemployed due to the decline of his company. Because of his age, he cannot find a comparable position. Wiedemann fears that, as his financial difficulties grow, he will not be able to maintain his standard of living and therefore his younger, attractive wife. Karin Wiedemann is actually having an affair with the up-and-comer Christian Zehle. Wiedemann lies in wait for his rival, murders him and arranges the circumstances so that it appears as if he had surprised Zehle and an "accomplice" during a break-in and shot Zehle while the second man escaped with the loot. To the murderer's great surprise, however, Inspector Haferkamp tracks down a certain Roll, who could well be the "accomplice" that Wiedemann had only invented.

The girl on the stairs

When Schimanski comes home from work in the evening, a girl is sitting on the stairs with him. It is 17-year-old Katja. Her mother, manager of the specialty restaurant "Hawaii", has been murdered, murdered in a way that suggests the perpetrator's very personal motives. Schimanski and Thanner inevitably have to look after Katja: someone is after her, looking for something that was not found in her murdered mother's apartment. It's about drugs. The major dealer and suspected murderer of Katja's mother is Straub, owner of the restaurant "Hawaii". They'll catch him - it's only a matter of time. But then it turns out that things are much more complicated. The police now urgently need Katja's help.

Broken blossoms

A dead man lies in a Duisburg bus - apparently the accidental victim of a stabbing. The murdered man was the owner of a dance studio that he ran together with his wife, Manuela Prinz. The investigation reveals that the perpetrator is a Thai. But when the detectives track him down, they find another body. Everything indicates that the Thai committed suicide. Schimanski suspects that the aloof Manuela is not telling him everything she knows. But suddenly it is she who asks him for help: her husband's "business friends" have contacted her and threatened her life if she is not willing to secure further "deliveries".

Schimanski - Moltke

Schimanski and Thanner are confronted with a case that happened a long time ago and that they were unable to solve: in 1978, one of the perpetrators was seriously injured during a bank robbery and was then executed in the bank by the leader of the gang. The perpetrators managed to escape - except for the Pole Zbiginiew Pawlak, who waited next to his dead brother until the police arrived. During the subsequent investigation, Pawlak was unable to say a word. The press then nicknamed him "Moltke", which he kept even during his prison sentence because he remained stubbornly silent.

It is a security guard who was found run over on a construction site by the entrepreneur Wahl. Borowski registers Wahl's cool response to the news. The security guard Bernd Ruda was run over with the car of Thorsten Brück, Teresa's husband. Brück also works for Wahl, but has now disappeared. When Wahl is then blackmailed, he confides in the inspector: someone blames him for the death of the security guard and is blackmailing him with it. But why is Wahl telling the commissioner about it?

What inspector Borowski hears and sees at the crime scene this time also exceeds his imagination: the pregnant Stefanie Brückner had her baby cut out of her body shortly before she was born. The mother is in mortal danger, there is no trace of the child. Frieda Jung surprises Borowski with the assumption that it is very likely a woman who cannot have children of her own, socially isolated and unmarried. A clever analysis, but Frieda Jung is wrong about one important detail.

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?

Crooked dogs

Private detective Peter Mang is found half-naked in a construction pit with a dog tattoo on his neck and puncture wounds in his back. Has he become the victim of his secret investigation? The trail leads Inspector Thiel to the villa of the industrialist family Rummel. Despite the clean facade, Sabine and Markus Rummel's marriage obviously seems to be crumbling: after all, the photos taken by the detective show that the factory boss and his new assistant Christine Schauer have more in common than just an employment relationship. Meanwhile, Prof. Boerne is once again investigating on his own. The fact that the murdered private detective looked so similar to him is something that doesn't bother the forensic doctor. The dead man's striking tattoo leads him to a relevant tattoo studio in Münster. Here he meets the Belarusian Jan Sievic – and his fighting dog.

Vienna - Unforgettable

A nighttime emergency call from a moving car alerts the police in Carinthia: "Eisner, BKA Vienna, service number 318-12-58. Need support!" A short time later, Lieutenant Colonel Moritz Eisner is found seriously wounded by a shot to the head and motionless behind the wheel of his car in a quarry. When he wakes up in the intensive care unit, he has no idea what has happened. He suffers from "retrograde amnesia", which blocks out the traumatic experience itself. A fatal consequence of the gunshot wound.

A man falls from the top floor of a luxury hotel in Vienna. The Iranian diplomat and nuclear physicist Dr. Bansari apparently committed suicide. But why did he buy expensive opera tickets for the same evening? Moritz Eisner and his colleague Bibi Fellner want to investigate the matter, but the Iranian embassy and the Austrian Foreign Ministry immediately get involved. The case is subject to the strictest secrecy - the dead man's laptop and cell phone are confiscated. The two investigators are annoyed, but do not give up. The hotel's surveillance video leads them to the trail of the shady lobbyist Johannes Leopold Trachtenfels-Lissé. He has arranged a secret deal with Dr. Bansari. Eisner and Fellner find out that the case involves valves and pumps that are needed for nuclear reactors. A trainload of the high-quality components is to be sent to Iran via third countries. For the two investigators, a race against time begins - and against the Israeli secret service Mossad.

Inspectors Klaus Borowski and Sarah Brandt investigate the drug scene in Kiel. After a manhunt call, Rita, the girlfriend of the deceased, gets in touch.

Rita reminds Borowski of his daughter Carla. He puts pressure on Rita and promises to protect her. In her distress, Rita accuses two dealers - and thereby puts herself in danger.

Borowski and the Children of Gaarden

The 60-year-old alcoholic Onno Steinhaus is found dead in a working-class district of Kiel. Steinhaus had a criminal record for pedophilia and, as Borowski and Brandt quickly find out, lived in complete isolation. Ironically, however, a group of children seemed to have gone in and out of the dead man. Apparently they exploited the dead man's desires, but - as they claim at least - never complied with his wishes. The police officer responsible for the district, Thorsten Rausch, seems to have capitulated in view of the social neglect in his area. Sarah Brandt's investigations bring to light a video that shows a boy - Timo Scholz - in a catchy situation with Onno Steinhaus. Timo denies having been abused. Borowski has to observe that Sarah Brandt is conspicuously often trying to get close to her police colleague Rausch.

Leitmayr's investigation of a Romanian pimp gets a fast conviction. Batic was not part of the investigation because he was a childhood friend of brothel operator Harry Schneider, for whom the victim supposedly worked. But the total indifference of the defendant irritated him. Back in the office, he asks again for the file of the convicted Romanian, because in all his years of service he had never experienced such a quick confession and not a single attempt to reduce his sentence.

Jürgen Sternow, head of the cyber crime department at the Kiel State Criminal Police Office, was the victim of a murder attack. It is reasonable to assume that the perpetrator is to be found in the area of rapidly growing cybercrime. Commissioners Borowski and Brandt are entrusted with the investigation by the responsible public prosecutor. While Borowski first has to acquire special technical knowledge, Sarah Brandt is in her element as a former hacker. But how do you hunt a perpetrator who has no relation to the victim and who knows all the tricks to hide in the Darknet?

Now, of all times, a treacherously murdered woman is found in an empty apartment in the middle of the city center. There is no trace of the perpetrator, who had evidently set himself up in hiding for months. When inspector Borowski looks around the victim's apartment, he suddenly finds himself in front of a wall of fire. Roman Eggers and the inspector face each other for a moment. Eggers tries desperately to annihilate the consequences of his crime - and saves Borowski at the last moment.

Long-distance bus driver Beni Gisler sees the man on the bridge, but there is nothing he can do. The body hits the windshield and is thrown away. In his previous life, Gisler was a train driver and was involved in suicides several times. The latest incident therefore brings back traumatic memories. Inspector Flückiger knows Gisler from his time in the military. Supported by the psychologist responsible for the care team, he takes Gisler under his wing. It soon turns out that the dead man had a high dose of benzodiazepine in his blood. Under these circumstances, it would have been impossible for him to throw himself off the bridge alone. The identity of the possible victim also raises questions. Inspector Flückiger and colleague Liz Ritschard begin to investigate.

A wife initially disappears without a trace from her house, which was obviously broken into. Traces of blood suggest the worst. Her husband Simon Fischer called the police, but then left the house.

Or did Kathrin Fischer secretly prepare the escape and stage the bloody act to incriminate her husband, because she can only be safe from him if he is in prison?

After the game, a death was reported in the emergency room. Andreas Schneider collapsed in the emergency room with skull fractures and a stab wound and could not be saved. It quickly turns out that he spent the “third half” at a field match. But whether he also suffered the fatal injuries there remains unclear for the time being.

To the records

Tobias Benzinger is shot dead, a young lawyer in a law firm with a considerable number of rather shady clients and a high success rate in criminal cases. Franziska Tobler and Friedemann Berg suspect that his death could have something to do with the law firm's cases. The head of the law firm, Rainer Benzinger, is extremely negative towards this theory. He retreats entirely into attorney-client confidentiality, refuses to allow any insight into his clients' affairs, and is not swayed by the fact that Tobias was his stepson. Friedemann Berg is outraged by this behavior, especially since he has learned that the two Benzingers had different opinions about the direction of the law firm.

In the law firm of lawyer Patricia Prinz, her husband is shot dead.

Remaining debt

Collecting debts is his job. And Fabian Pavlou is very good at it. He is considered one of the most successful field staff at the international company Correct Inkasso. But now Pavlou was brutally attacked on his way home. When the inspectors Max Ballauf and Freddy Schenk arrive at the crime scene, there is no trace of the victim. Did one of the debtors the debt collection manager recently dealt with take revenge - or did he see no other way out? For example, there is the tax clerk Stefanie Schreiter, who is facing a wage garnishment because of her ex-husband's debts. Or the completely indebted masseur Timo Eckhoff, who can no longer pay his electricity bill. Or the married couple Monika and Jost Lehnen, who are facing the foreclosure of their home... Then the colleagues from the manhunt call in. They have located Pavlou's cell phone. At a motorway rest area near Cologne. But the point on the map is moving. Max Ballauf immediately starts to pursue him...
