For 6 years, criminals in Cologne no longer have a chance, because since then the SOKO Cologne investigates. The team around the charming chief inspector and boss Karin Reuter consists of Frank Hansen, the grumpy investigator and lovable slob who loves nothing as much as his blue Citroen DS, Julia Marschall, the attractive and sporty inspector, Daniel Winter, the always polite and correct young detective from a good family, and the cheeky detective trainee Vanessa Haas, the research and PC specialist of the likeable squad. Together they solve exciting and tricky criminal cases with almost 100% success – always with a lot of charm, wit and emotion.
