Böhler and the death on platform 18

His 16th case

Synopsis

A student meets his end at platform 18. Accident or murder? An asylum seeker is accused—rightly or wrongly? Inspector Böhler and his team wade into the murky morass of deportations at the State Secretariat for Migration (SEM). Heartless people profit from the suffering of the innocent. Böhler takes up the fight and deploys entirely new methods, thanks to the help of a courageous journalist, his assistant Jasmin, and IT specialist Wendelin Kellerhals.
