action

Veterinarian Caroline Behringer is found stabbed to death in her apartment. Chief Detective Verena Berthold and colleague Otto Garber are first investigating the real estate investor Scholler, who wants to evict the long -established residents of the neighborhood , in which the victim also lived, in order to convert the apartments into hotels and condominiums. Caroline Behringer was the head of a citizens' movement against this project and had quarreled with Scholler several times.

The victim lived alone, but has recently had a friend, according to the office hours help, but he does not know the name or address. She spent further free time with the telephone counseling of a charitable association, for which she worked voluntarily. The manager, Silvia Teckler, can remember a caller who only wanted to speak to Caroline Behringer and who followed her downright. This Daniel Elvert has a criminal record for various property crimes and is one of the main suspects alongside Scholler.

The next day the house owner millet is found dead. Since she had rented one of her apartments to Ms. Behringer, the two cases seem to be related. However, this victim was killed in front of the vet and the murder pattern is also different.

In the course of the further investigations, Verena Berthold comes across the painting company Peter Schneider, which primarily carries out the smaller renovations in the apartment buildings here in the Kiez. Daniel Elvert is Peter Schneider's nephew and works in his uncle's small business. Since there have been minor break-ins in the recently renovated apartments without exception, the investigators assume that Elvert has relapsed. On closer inspection, it is clear that Elvert must have committed the break-ins together with his uncle. After Verena and Otto observe the suspects, they can convict them in the act. It turns out that Peter Schneider killed the house owner when she surprised him during the break-in. His nephew had wanted to ease himself through the telephone counseling and had spoken to Caroline Behringer about the incident. When his uncle found out, he silenced the vet so she couldn't tell the police anything.

Reviews

Rainer Tittelbach from Tittelbach.tv wrote: “Speculative activity with real estate - despite the social problems in the background, 'Schöner Wohnen' from the ZDF series 'A strong team' offers only routine crime thriller with Berlin flair, a well-rehearsed team and Russian sidekicks . Filippos Tsitos' compulsory cinematic exercise doesn't really get going. "

The critics of the TV magazine TV Spielfilm also only give a medium rating (thumbs straight) and say: "Too much staff, details and tricks slows down the tension." Conclusion: "Experienced investigators in an overloaded crime thriller."
