Evil knows no borders – a spectacular murder case keeps an entire region in suspense
At Brauneck mountain just outside of Lenggries in Bavaria, the dead body of a woman is discovered on a cliff. But what initially looks like a climbing accident, turns out to be a gruesome murder. Straw legs have been sewn onto the torso, and not long afterwards, further body parts turn up in Lake Achen in Tyrol. Are they also from the dead woman's body? But why would the perpetrator distribute the corpse across two countries? This is the first big case for young, driven Chief Inspector Alexa Jahn, who has just taken up her post at the Criminal Investigation Department in Weilheim. She could use all the support she can get, but, at the outset, she cannot count on her disillusioned colleague on the Austrian side, Chief Inspector Bernhard Krammer.
