Summary Police commissioner Thomas Stark, released from jail after three years after the trial for the murder of his former partner was quashed, is picked up and housed not by his wife, who disowned him and hesitates whether to reestablish contact with their bratty teen daughter, but by his discredited attorney Rainer Kessler. Stark insists instantly to rejoin his Füssen precinct in Königswinkel, where doubt remain concerning his innocence. Captain Mehrin assigns him not above loyal believer Peter Breitkreuz but under openly hostile Julia Bachleitner, to keep an eye on him for chief and her husband, state attorney Magnus Bachleitner. Their first case is the murder of local newspaper reporter Schäfer; who sought his first great scoop investigating the Italian mafia connections in Allgäu. Despite sabotage from Julia, Thomas does a good job, using his rapport with former classmate and restaurant owner Francesco Danesi only to be mistrusted by both sides. The missing evidence apparently gathered by Schäfer seems the link with the next murder of his wife Claudia. Only Stark realizes the grim danger at brother in law Peter Breitkreuz's derelict farm, where he must raise his two young kids alone while Julia dumbly walks straight into danger. View more details
