Fluss des Lebens: Geliebte Loire

Romy believed that with Kay she had finally found the happiness of her life. But now, when she is released from prison after a year of incarceration, she has to learn that he has a child with someone else. A bitter disappointment for Romy. And even the job in a retirement home promises little hope for better times.

A trip to the Loire is just what she needs. Johanna Langhoff, a resident of the home, makes her a tempting offer: If Romy accompanies her on her last trip to the Loire, the old lady wants to make her her sole heir.

Although the two women are like fire and water, the disillusioned Romy embarks on the adventure. At the same time, it gets on Romy’s nerves that Mrs. Langhoff still draws on her memories: as a young woman, she spent unforgettable summers on the Loire with her French lover. However, their happiness came to an abrupt end when one day Mrs. Langhoff had to receive the surprising news of the death of her beloved Henri.

Pierre, the French captain of the ship in which Romy and Mrs. Langhoff travel down the side channels of the Loire, is also scarred by love. But that does not mean that he has lost his French lightness. And so three very different people embark on a journey together, during which Romy learns for the first time what it means to be valued as a person for oneself.

Only with this new attitude towards life does she finally manage to jump over her shadow and stand by the old lady when she is completely surprised to learn that her whole life is based on a lie.

Der Prag-Krimi: Wasserleiche

Jan Koller, a theater-loving inspector with the BKA in Berlin, is asked to solve the death of a colleague. And this in the Czech Republic, of all places, where Koller lived as a child and which is associated for him with exclusively bad memories.

Reluctantly, he goes to Prague, where his colleague was killed at his brother’s bachelor party. It quickly becomes clear to Koller that the killer is to be sought in the dead man’s closest circle of friends.

In order to unmask the perpetrator, Koller exposes him to the very situation that led to the murder: Koller has the night of the murder meticulously recreated – much to the displeasure of the suspects, but also of his Prague colleague Klára Majerova. Koller’s unusual method takes everyone involved to their limits.

Ostfriesensünde

A mummified corpse is accidentally found in a cellar on Norderney. It quickly becomes clear that a serial killer has repeatedly walled up young women here and left them to die of miserable thirst in their dungeon. The “Soko Maurer” has been investigating for years.

How many walled-in people are still waiting for them and what is the perpetrator’s motive? The head of the Soko has heard of Chief Inspector Ann Kathrin Klaasen in East Frisia, who has already succeeded in putting a stop to two serial killers using completely unorthodox methods. He relies on her excellent intuition, a great honor for Kripochef Ubbo Heide. But when a young woman from Leer disappears without a trace and a gynecologist is forcibly abducted, Ann Kathrin is forced to act.

Without further ado, she decides to conduct an unusual self-experiment: Her neighbor and longtime friend, bricklayer Peter Grendel, is not even surprised when Ann Kathrin asks him to wall her in. Her colleague and partner Weller tries to talk her out of it, but she persists. After all, the criminological-scientific investigation methods have not brought them one step further so far!

There is not much time to put the pieces of the puzzle together to form a picture, because on the third day without water, the lives of the last two victims in their dark dungeon hang only by a thread…

Norden is a peaceful vacation resort on the North Sea coast – until a series of murders shakes the small town. For chief inspector Ann Kathrin Klaasen (Christiane Paul), who is currently going through a deep life crisis herself, this case becomes a test that completely overturns her previous concept of good and evil.

Ulf Speicher (Michael Sideris) lies in his kitchen with a hole in his forehead shot with a historical gun. Kai Uphoff (Paul Hinrich Aeils) is up next. His body is found between the beach chairs.

The two victims, killed with extreme brutality and precision, lead Inspector Ann Kathrin and her colleagues Frank Weller (Christian Erdmann) and Rupert (Barnaby Metschurat) to the Rainbow Association, which not only cares for disabled people but also manages their sometimes considerable assets. The nerves of the employees are on edge. What did their boss, Ulf Speicher, and Kai, who is doing his voluntary social year with them, do to make them die? Who will be next?

Then the deputy director of the association is found not far from his house in the ditch – also cruelly murdered.

Several investigative steps further and only when it is almost too late, Ann Kathrin suspects the full extent of an unprecedented manipulation, which with its fatal consequences has already cost the lives of three people and which is now directed unbroken devastatingly against the next victim…
