Die Lebenden und die Toten
Miniseries
A series of murders with seemingly unconnected victims puts the investigators of K11 under pressure. Three people are killed by a sniper in the Taunus area. The media soon coins the term "Taunus sniper" and fear spreads among the public. The sniper seems to be a highly strategic killer. Andreas Neff from the State Office of Criminal Investigation supports the investigators Oliver von Bodenstein, Pia Kirchhoff and Kai Ostermann. They find out that not the assassinated people but their relatives are the true victims. The investigators get drawn ever more deeply into a complex net of guilt and revenge, and step by step they uncover an enormous medical scandal.

E1Teil 1In the Taunus jurisdiction, three apparently not linked people without dangerous enemies are fatally shot at public locations by what the eager newspaper dubs the "Taunus-Sniper", soon a hype with the public, even tempting the ministry to resort to extraordinary safety measures. The sniper must be smart, cool-blooded and well-trained. Oliver von Bodenstein, the new chief detective, finds his team, Pia Kirchhoff and Kai Ostermann, temporarily reinforced with haughty LKA (state prosecution) profiler Andreas Neff. Once they try the working hypothesis the only links between the 'substitutive' victims are their loved-ones, everything leads to the complex system of organ donation. And something is rotten given the poorly observed legal-medical protocol. - Die Lebenden und die Toten (2/2) - Ein Taunuskrimi
