Plot Summary:German detective commissioner Max Richter joins the Athens police, to his new colleagues' astonishment. He proves himself to suspicious, initially sabotaging partner Petros Makropoulos -who ignores himself being under corruption suspicion, hence director Ritsos needed an outsider- in a first case, the murder at home of a young singer, whose boyfriend makes the prime suspect. Richter finds blending in even harder as his sister Melina has an affair with Petros, but the uneasy duo spots and brutally shakes of tailing show car, following the suspect to his socialite former employer, publisher Victoria Pappas. The murder weapon is found part of many stolen from a German shipment to the Athens police, as the only ICT-wise detective Sideris Nikopolidis works out. The fugitive is the elder brother of a preteen in urgent need of a kidney and lacking an alternative donor.
