Overview

  • ARD premiered the episode on October 12 at 20:15 CET, with a free live stream and immediate ARD-Mediathek availability, plus a same-evening repeat on ONE.
  • The broadcast reached 8.16 million viewers for a 31.9% market share, leading Sunday night across key audiences, according to Quotenmeter figures cited by DerWesten.
  • The case opens with Lilly-Marie found dead after fleeing a youth home, her boyfriend Pascal missing, and a youth welfare official later discovered killed.
  • Leonie Winkler (Cornelia Gröschel) and Peter Michael Schnabel (Martin Brambach) handle the investigation following Karin Gorniak’s departure from the team.
  • Reviews describe the installment as solid but uneven, highlighting Schnabel’s character development and Florian Geißelmann’s performance, while local commentary notes limited city imagery and the intact Carolabrücke captured in 2024 filming.
