Die Toten von Salzburg plot
Major Peter Palfinger from Graz, who is confined to a wheelchair after an accident, becomes head of the violent and murder crime department in Salzburg. His superior, Alfons Seywald, is surprised at his disability; Palfinger himself is an inveterate optimist, sees his incomplete paralysis as a challenge and is convinced that it can be cured. He is training to one day conquer the Untersberg on his own two feet and without a wheelchair. When he starts working in his new office, his first case is already waiting for him. He is supported in his investigations by district inspector Irene Russmeyer.
