The old man from the mountain

The old man from the mountain

The entertaining criminal cases of a mismatched pair of detectives in a picturesque idyll: when charismatic Jerry Paulsen from the State Criminal Police Office in Hamburg is deployed to a small town in the Alps, conflict with the resident Chief Inspector Benedikt Beissl is all but guaranteed. Professionally and privately, as Jerry is also dating Beissl's daughter.

The farmer Josef Lahner is rescued in the high mountains by the mountain rescue team. A witness claims someone pushed the old man into the ravine. He suffers from dementia and lives with his daughter Sophie and his grandson Christian on a run-down farm. Did his own family want to eliminate him out of desperation? Or are the wealthy Farmer Veit Wieland and his son Ferdinand behind the assassination attempt? As Jerry Paulsen takes a closer look at the crime scene and the past of Josef Lahner, the commissioners reveal a dark secret that the old man almost would have cost his life.The farmer Josef Lahner is rescued in the high mountains by the mountain rescue team.
