Money. Murder. Zurich.: Borchert und die Zeit zu sterben

SYNOPSIS

The sudden death of the watch manufacturer Ludwig Sutter causes a tangible inheritance dispute: of all people, his eldest daughter Anna, who as a master watchmaker could and would like to continue running the traditional manufacture Sutter and Valois, remains outside of the succession - all shares go to her younger half-brothers. While the investment banker Michel is hardly interested in horology anyway, the new company boss René is desperately looking for an idea to stay competitive. Anna instructs Borchert and Dominique to challenge the inheritance. But shortly afterwards she is suspected of murder: René is killed in his office, and Anna was the last to see him. For Captain Furrer, the evidence leaves few questions unanswered, especially since Anna's fingerprints are found on the murder weapon. Borchert's instinct, however, tells him: Something is wrong here. The almighty managing director Gassner does not like the fact that he is looking around the company. When he pushed ahead with the takeover by the unscrupulous hedge fund manager Decker, the alarm bells were ringing at Borchert - especially since the purchase price appears suspiciously low. With the help of his friend Reto, he discovers a dubious takeover maneuver. Borchert reveals yet another, as yet undiscovered crime.
