A young woman devotedly runs her father-in-law’s construction company, but her husband’s reckless lifestyle threatens the company’s very existence. Together with the company’s authorized signatory, she plans the perfect murder, which seems to be going according to plan. But when the investigating detective falls in love with the attractive widow, things start to spiral out of control.

The unlikely police pair Verena Berthold and Otto Garber are part of a special task force investigating organized crime in Berlin. He comes from the east, she from the west of Berlin. He's a redneck, she's from a better background. This causes conflict. Over time, things start to sizzle between the two. Their team includes the agile German-Turkish Yücsel and the sluggish Georg, who, like Verena and Otto, are constantly bickering. The department manager is Lothar Reddemann. Sputnik is a former colleague of Otto's from the People's Police and is constantly coming up with new business ideas for stores and pubs where the team meets.
