action

At the funeral of the hermit Heinz Mitteregger, knocking signals suddenly came from the coffin, and when the lid was lifted, the supposedly deceased climbed out. However, his resurrection is short-lived. The next day Mitteregger was found dead. The commissioners Benno Berghammer and Sabrina Lorenz encounter a number of suspects: for example Mitteregger's daughter Martina and her criminal friend Ralf Schierl. Heinz Mitteregger had forbidden this connection and threatened his daughter with disinheritance. There is an appointment with the notary Irene Miller in his calendar, but she cannot be consulted because she has disappeared; her husband Peter reported her missing. But also Mitteregger's only friend and chess partner, the computer freak Wolfgang Weber, and his mother Hildegard give the impression that they have something to hide.

The inspectors hear from several quarters of a legendary treasure that Heinz Mitteregger is said to have stolen from a crashed truck shortly before the end of the Second World War and then hidden. Hildegard Weber reports her son Wolfgang as missing. It turns out that he ordered diving equipment online to borrow. He's also heavily indebted to a computer accessories company, so he could use a treasure. The commissioners identify the Kleinmachtlfinger See as the most likely place for diving. There they discover a hole in the ice sheet and Wolfgang Weber's corpse in a diving suit. He drowned because someone cut his air tube. His mother confirms to the inspectors that her son had Mr Mitteregger on his conscience. There was a quarrel because Mitteregger suddenly wanted to donate the treasure, and he fell in the process; it was an accident.

Peter Miller and Mr. Maier have been fighting a neighborhood war for years; Maier is now taking the final blow: He wants to force Miller to hand over his house to him. Miller asks him into the house and overpowers and ties him up. When the doorbell rings, Miller gags his neighbor and advises him to keep quiet. The commissioners stand in front of the front door and bring him the sad news that his wife has been found dead at the bottom of the mountain lake. The shaken husband can't think of anyone who could have had a reason to kill her.

Berghammer and Lorenz go to the neighboring house to ask Maier, but he doesn't seem to be at home, although his car is there and the door is not locked. You will find photos with the date and time on the back: one Miller with a diving bottle and one Miller with something that looks like a corpse wrapped in foil. Then the house owner's cleaning lady appears and tells them that Mr. Maier wanted to go to Peter Miller. When they leave the house, Maier manages to make himself noticeable in dire straits. The commissioners can stop Miller just in time from lighting the fire accelerator with which he wanted to torch his house, Maier and himself.

Peter Miller admits to have killed Wolfgang Weber because he saw him mooring his wife at the bottom of the lake. He gives the reason for the murder of his wife that he could not simply let her go after 32 happy years.

Benno Berghammer learns from his mother that the treasure from the Machtlfinger See no longer exists because it was recovered in the 1950s. Heinz Mitteregger did not know anything about the rescue because he was abroad at the time.
