action

Mechthild Kerstenbrock hires private detective Georg Wilsberg to prove whether an allegation against her husband, who is currently in the local election campaign, is true. In her opinion, it would only be an intrigue to harm her husband.

While Wilsberg is researching the matter, Wolfgang Kerstenbrock is killed in his office. Wilsberg finds out that Kerstenbrock has an illegitimate daughter who blames him for the death of her mother and who therefore wanted to take revenge on her father through a sex scandal. However, Til Geskamp, ​​a party member of the victim, is responsible for the actual intrigue. However, he has an alibi for the time of the crime. Geskamp accuses Kerstenbrock of not having decided in the interests of the party and the voters lately. A new stadium was to be built, which, according to the victim's plans, would have been built on a piece of land that would ultimately have been very profitable for "KV Immobilien GmbH", which belongs to Kerstenbrock's father-in-law. Wilsberg learns that Kerstenbrock refrained from this plan shortly before his death and sent his party colleague an email to this effect.

Commissioner Springer also came to the conclusion that Kurt Vosswinkel could have something to do with the murder, because after evaluating the telephone connections Kerstenbrock had telephoned his father-in-law shortly before his death. After Wilsberg found the weapon that was fished out of the lake during an “environmental campaign for the clean Aasee ”, Vosswinkel confessed. The dominant head of the family could not bear that his unloved son-in-law did not make the political decisions for his company, as Vosswinkel had asked him to do.
