synopsis

An investment broker is found dead in his car at the Dortmund harbour. His client, Josef Micklitza, quickly becomes a suspect. However, it turns out that his fortune, worth millions, has almost disappeared due to the opaque schemes of the advisors.
During the investigation, the inspectors come across another suspect: Micky Micklitza, brother of the top manager, who moves in a completely different milieu. He is a club owner, drug user and perhaps also a dealer.
Jan Pawlak in particular becomes interested in Micky when he discovers that his wife Ella, who disappeared years ago, is living with him. In order to get her back, Pawlak enters Micky's world and begins to push the boundaries of professional investigative work. Micky senses the "weak spot" in Jan Pawlak and pulls him into a quagmire of "Greed and Fear"...
