Weiss 'supervisor Jan Geissler is well disposed towards the target investigator and shows himself jealous when Weiss' spent the night in a guesthouse with her colleague Simon Brandt during her third case.

Jutta Lieck Klenke, responsible for production, asked the producers to ask themselves about a new figure to be established, namely, how do you create a figure “who can be seen next to all the other investigators on German television? “Nora Weiss is a tough, courageous loner, young, highly intelligent and perfectionist. She grew up in the east in a pastor's household. That’s what makes them. She loves her home, likes to live in her house by the sea. Her nature is marked by seriousness, always knowing that she has a great responsibility not only towards the victims, but also towards their relatives.

The producer said, “Anna Maria Mühe [is] a godsend for every film she [e] appears in. Wherever she [is], magic spreads on the canvas ”. With “this strong pound” you go into “two highly complex cases”.
