Leonard Lansink as Detective Wilsberg

Storyline

Detective Wilsberg is assigned an investigation in relation to the Schlacke company, the biggest art contractor in Munster. The low prices offered by the firm would only be explicable by employing illegal work forces. It is private detective Wilsberg’s job to prove that clandestine workers are being employed by the company.

Georg Wilsberg begins his investigation by monitoring a mansion that is being renovated by the Schlacke firm. However, he finds a young lady there, that should have passed away due to sudden heart failure. Wilsberg is as skeptical about this as about the autopsy result, that claims that she would have committed suicide.

The owner of a brothel, Asta Bergengrun, passes away shortly after. How? An unnatural death. Wilsberg, who is already pondering the case of the claimed suicide, makes some connections. Further investigations lead him to find new clues, that would bring him closer to an explanation.
