Stralsund – Cold Blood

A crime puts the close relationship between two entrepreneurial families in a tense German-Russian relationship to the test.

The body that washes up on Stralsund’s beach is not just anyone: Hagen Viet was a member of the Viet family of entrepreneurs, whose underwater technology company has a long tradition in the region. Gunshot wounds suggest a capital crime, but both the dead man’s sister, Anette Viet, and her son Oskar are stonewalling. They cannot explain Hagen’s involvement in a crime. Then Polina Kross, BKA officer for white-collar crime, arrives in Stralsund and asks Inspector Jule Zabek and her boss Karl Hidde for administrative assistance. She has had the family in her sights for some time. A supply deal involving sensitive control technology, which can also be used for military purposes and violates the German-Russian economic embargo, appears to be in the pipeline. But what role does the death of Hagen Viet play in this context? And what is the story behind the absence of Oskar’s wife, Irina? Is she really on vacation in Spain, or has something happened to her too? Traces of blood on the Viets’ property suggest that the family is involved in the crime. Could something have happened to Irina too?

In addition to a complex criminal case that poses a particular challenge to our investigators, “Cold Blood” is a family and generational drama with three strong female characters at its center.
