German Crime Story: Gefesselt

Criminal inspector Langenbeck asks more questions than her male colleagues and has no idea that she is dealing with one of the most spectacular criminal cases in the Federal Republic of Germany involving master furrier Doormann.

In court, Elke Berger is humiliated by Raik Doormann and his defense attorney. Meanwhile, Nela Langenbeck learns of another missing person case.

While Raik Doormann enjoys a good life in an open prison, Nela Langenbeck finds a secret message about the disappearance of Cornelia Kessler, who has apparently become the victim of a perfidious power game.

Raik Doormann is planning his escape to Costa Rica. The clock is ticking. Nela Langenbeck lacks the evidence for a murder charge. But the deeper she digs into the past, the louder the cries for help from the torture chamber become.

SOKO 926 is founded under the direction of Balbek, Nela Langenbeck's colleague. A major setback for the Commissioner. The news that Cornelia has entered Germany throws her into another crisis. Isn't Raik Doorman a murderer after all?

The interrogations put a strain on the investigators, because Raik Doormann never tires of inventing new stories. Nela Langenbeck visits Ludwig Lübke to find out more about Raik Doormann's past.
