action

Chief Inspector Charlotte Lindholm, special investigator at the Lower Saxony State Criminal Police Office , receives an envelope containing a postcard from the fishing village of Nordersiel and a power bar with the imprint "Forte". The postcard says: “Come quickly - otherwise murder!” The commissioner had the bar analyzed immediately and was correct in her suspicion that it was poisoned. Lindholm wants to know what the card and bar is all about and goes to Nordersiel. Her roommate Martin is concerned about her decision.

The Jellinek couple live on Nordersiel with their adult daughter Sandra. Roland Jellinek is an irascible man who beats and pressures his wife. Jellinek runs a small company together with Wolfgang Surdrup. When Surtrup suddenly collapses for no apparent reason, he is found to be poisoned. Lindholm is now in Nordersiel and is staying in the "Pension Inge". There she also learns of Surtrup's poisoning. In the hospital, Surtrup tells her that he has never eaten those power bars, but his partner Jellinek takes them in abundance and adds that he saw the naturopath Christian Praetorius put his bars in his pocket. The commissioner learns from Jellinek that he is getting the Forte bars from specialist retailers in Aurich . When she asked whether he had enemies, he referred to Praetorius, who was stalking his wife. When asked about his marriage, he replies that marriage is like the weather on the coast, sometimes sun, sometimes storm.

When Lindholm left her pension the next morning, she found a note on her bike with the inscription: "Poison on Jellinek's cutter." The inspector learned from forensic technician Mayer that, in addition to the remains of the power bar, traces of the poison had been found in Surtrup's stomach . The commissioner now asks Praetorius, who somehow looks familiar, to write the ominous sentence. He was also sued by Surtrup for an alleged malpractice but is certain that he will win the case. Praetorius receives a call from Nynke Jellinek, who speaks of her fear and that he should never have done that. Shortly thereafter, Lindholm temporarily arrests Jellinek.

In a conversation with Sonja Praetorius, the inspector found out that she had found a hidden power bar and was very surprised about it, because normally you don't hide something like that. But then all of a sudden it disappeared. She indicates how much she is suffering from the fact that her husband deals so much with Nynke Jellinek and falls into irony. Shortly after this conversation, Lindholm comes across Sandra Jellinek in the small local church, who tells her that her father treats people like dirt and especially her mother. When asked, she says that she trusts her father to do everything. In the hospital, the inspector learns that Surtrup can no longer be saved. While Praetorius receives a divorce petition from his wife and she lets him know that she wants him to move out since the house belongs to her anyway, Sandra wants her mother to finally leave her father. Nynke Jellinek accuses her daughter of whether she can see where her hatred is leading the family. Then she collapses crying on her bed and stutters: "Why do you all always know better what is good for me than I do?"

Some time later, Lindholm sits at Surtrup's deathbed. He has no one else. When the commissioner returns to the pension, Martin is there. Charlotte is crying. The case reminds her of the death of her best friend Nadja, who once sent her a postcard asking for help. Even then she was late.

The commissioner sums up her investigations in a scheduled detention examination: 1. The poison from all the power bars comes from the tube that was seized from Jellinek's ship. 2. The power bars in his fitness room were also poisoned and should probably be stored there. 3. The syringe found in Jellinek's pocket also contained the poison. As it turns out a little later, Lindholm was correct in their assumption that they knew Praetorius from somewhere, they had attended the same lecture years ago. At that time he was only called “cricket” among the students and he knew about the matter with Nadja. At the same time, Nynke Jellinek is violently offended by Praetorius when she happily tells him that she has separated from her husband. A separation from his wife is out of the question for him, because then he would be finished.

When Lindholm questions her former fellow student, he admits that he sent her the postcard. But he doesn't know who killed Surtrup. He denies that he has a motive because of the process initiated by Surtrup. Lindholm says that if he had gone to the police in time, Surtrup could still be alive. He said he would be happy to get away with an accessory to murder charge. The inspector then visits Jellinek in his cell and tells him that Surtrup is dead. In fact, she gets him to admit that he crumbled the bar in question in Surtrup's cereal. But he didn't know what was in the bar. When he took a bite, he only noticed that it tasted strange and spat out the bite. He suspected Surtrup of trying to play a prank on him because he kept coming up with harassment for him. He is now facing a lawsuit for negligent homicide, says Lindholm, and asks the question of who hate him so much. Jellinek's answer is a desperate one: "I don't know."

Nynke Jellinek has written a confession and wants to throw himself from the lighthouse, which Lindholm can prevent at the last moment. With Martin's help, Charlotte then finds out that Sandra has obtained disposable syringes over the Internet. She hates her father profoundly and wanted her mother to leave him at all costs. With the help of these syringes she wanted to accuse her father of murder after her original plan had failed. She could no longer watch how he abused and humiliated her mother. So she decided to kill him. When that went wrong, she came up with the plan with the syringes and directed the suspicion to her father. She then stuck the note on her bike. Her mother wanted to prevent all of this and asked Praetorius for help. Sandra can't be dissuaded from the fact that she did all this for her mother's sake. When Lindholm reproaches her for calmly watching her mother take the blame, the young woman defiantly replies that the mother would at least have been safe from the father in prison. Charlotte and Martin look at each other without saying a word when Sandra then wants to know plaintively: "And who's taking care of my mother now?"

When Martin asked why not, she replied, "because I would rather share my apartment with a weird, talented, hypochondriac, lovable crime writer than share my bed with a pretty crack butt."

criticism

TV Spielfilm pointed with the thumbs up, gave one of three points for humor, ambition and action, two for suspense and said: "Quotas Queen Furtwängler shows all her skills." Crime, well played. "

The critic Rainer Tittelbach found that the book had “a few leaks”, but the film “thanks to a great ensemble was able to get over the rounds of tricks”. Tittelbach went on to say that the province is also putting its stamp on the third crime scene with Maria Furtwängler . “Director Thomas Jauch gets closer to the stranger and their idiosyncratic characters in an atmospheric way. With the inspector's gaze, the viewer enters a world of gossip, resentment and cheap calendar sayings. "

The Berliner Zeitung wrote that a “well-acted, but sometimes a little constructed case, in which the investigator shows once more that she has the right nose for her business, is not even a fresh North Sea breeze [could] show that “came about.
