Alles Verbrecher: Leiche im Keller

Alles Verbrecher: Leiche im Keller

Shock on the night of love: Instead of the tender hand of his neighbor Maren Wenning, the married suburban Casanova Rudi Sterzenbach suddenly feels the bloody hand of a murder victim on his face in the dark cellar. The man lying there with his skull smashed in is the speculative shark Armin Teller. Ironically, also wrapped in the banner of a citizens' initiative against the gentrification of the quarter. An initiative in which they are both active. When the unequal investigator duo Hertha Frohwitter and Marco Petrassi rushed into their second case, the two quickly realized that their own boss, Volker Quabeck, was on the board of precisely this citizens' initiative. And he lies in a long-term feud with the murdered man's company partner, Raffael Sobocinski, a Hessian choleric with Polish roots, which was fueled by a lot of anger until shortly before physical violence. Frohwitter and Petrassi now have to fight their way through the jungle of what is popularly known as "Cameroon". A district that has a lot of strange people, unexpected things and nice attack dogs in store for the investigators to grapple with. Does the sturdy, snotty, original Hilde Sterzenbach, who runs the last beverage trade on the edge of the universe with her husband and who, with other angry citizens, are storming the gentrification project, count among the potential perpetrators? And what role does the extremely good-looking young journalist Dana Lambach play, who so seemingly easily wraps the impressed Inspector Petrassi around her finger? Only after an attempt at blackmail and an assassination attempt on an employee of the building authority do things become clearer - and completely different than expected. An exciting, crazy expedition through the reserve of the last natives of the Frankfurt "Cameroon".
