Shades (10/17)

When physician Dr. Kugler is found dead in his office, the stolen prescription drugs and signs of a break-in point to the deed of a desperate junkie. A young man who was seen fleeing the office at the time of the murder becomes the top suspect. Investigators Schneider and Schmücke find out the doctor was treating poor, uninsured patients, many of them illegal aliens. Could the killer be one of them? The search for the fleeing man leads the detectives to a dead end, however: Leonid Cherkassov has an accident trying to escape a police checkpoint, leaving him seriously injured and unable to talk. It seems certain he was one of Kugler's patients. But why does the doctor's assistant swear she's never seen the young Ukrainian before? The case takes a surprising turn when the body of another illegal alien is found floating in the river - a young woman. She turns out to have been Cherkassov's girlfriend. Both of them worked for a recycling company that belonged to the assistant's husband. He becomes a suspect when it turns out he was quarrelling with Kugler. But what's the connection?

Two parts experience plus one part female intuition equals three successful investigators.
