Season 6 / Episode 1 and airs on 01 January 2026 17:50
The series is about Chief Inspector Benedikt Beissl (Andreas Giebel), who lives in Berchtesgaden with his wife Elisabeth and three daughters Maria, Johanna and Eva. Beissl has been ensuring law and order in Berchtesgaden for decades. To his displeasure, one day he was given a new colleague. So far, the solitary inspector has loved to do his thing alone. His new colleague Jerry Paulsen (Peter Marton) is the son of a black GI and the daughter of an innkeeper from Bad Aibling. He is quite daring and able to work in a team and moved from Hamburg to Bavaria for reasons of love. But Jerry's chosen one is, of all people, Beissl's daughter Johanna. The two police commissioners have to solve a murder in the area in each episode. The locally rooted Beissl often knows the victims as well as their surroundings and potential perpetrators.
Karsten Mehring, the manager of the upscale Watzmann retreat, is found dead in his official residence. Stabbed, as Dr. Hartmann determines. Judith Delius and Manu Högl, the center's founders, are devastated but unable to assist Jerry and Sophia with their investigation. The two women seem tense, having risked so much for the retreat. Did this prove fatal for the new manager? Perhaps Elli, Beissl's wife, can shed some light on the matter? Her former assistant at the tourist office, Daniel Kovac, has become one of the prime suspects! Elli can't let it go and begins her own investigation.
On her way to the Röder law firm in Berchtesgaden, Munich businesswoman Paola Wagner crashes her convertible on a mountain pass. She was attacked by a drone. When Sophia and Jerry visit the lawyer, Wagner's business partner, Sven Mielow, is waiting for her. He admits to having been in a relationship with Paola in the past and to having been surprised by her desire to leave their joint company.
