Der Bozen-Krimi: Leichte Beute

SYNOPSIS

In a break-in, a retired judge is shot dead with his own gun in his home. An unsuccessful robbery resulting in death or a cold-blooded act of revenge? "Mrs. Commissario" Sonja Schwarz and "Capo" Matteo Zanchetti consider both to be possible, because the victim, decried as "Judge Eisenhart", had many enemies. The case also fits seamlessly into a series of break-ins in which the alarm systems failed in a puzzling way. The focus is on Manuel Steinbrenner, an employee of a security company who runs a ramshackle hotel together with his sister Petra. Three criminals have made their home there on their raid: Petra's "ex" Stefan with his accomplices Daniele and Francesca. Despite the police investigation, leader Daniele wants to pull off the last big thing as planned. However, the fact that one of them got on alone with the judge creates mutual distrust in the gangster trio. It is also difficult for Sonja to keep a cool head: stepdaughter Laura has fallen in love with a young man, of all people, whose family is close to the Mafia governor in Bolzano, Rossi.
