Did IT expert Sebastian Sandberg really throw himself off his balcony? Commissioners Frank Thiel and Nadeshda Krusenstern take up the investigation. Prof. Boerne and Silke "Alberich" Haller did not immediately find evidence of a murder in forensic medicine. But there is evidence of a burglary in the dead man's apartment. Now Frank Thiel finally wants to go to the gym when colleague Krusenstern reports with an urgent assignment. Just at this moment, a strange young woman is standing in front of the inspector's apartment door: Leila Wagnerclaims to be Thiel's daughter. But that will have to wait. Just like the preparations for the oral hunting test: Prof. Boerne wants to pursue the game in the forests of the Münsterland in the future. But first his expertise as a forensic doctor is in demand.
Because the IT expert is not the only murder victim. A journalist is found lifeless in a farm on the outskirts of the city. He was known nationwide for his persistent research - and for his latest story he was taking a close look at a local feed company.
