In the Nuremberg LKA-school, she staged crime scenes. The cases you think of at night in bed, says Constanze, the, by Barbara Auer embodied, no less enigmatic and hard to Take effect as as the Commissioner. A doll with fake blood poured in a shower cabin, the other dangling in a noose from the ceiling. The police are contenders fathom: suicide or murder? Heartbreak is Meuffels, but also so that he remains alone. The crime scene in the Parking lot calling, and his new assistant Nadja.
