Malerische Traumstrände, tödliche Klippen und ein Ermittlerteam, das eigentlich gar keines ist - Elba – drittgrößte Insel Italiens, beliebtes und idyllisches Urlaubsparadies sowie neue Heimat von Hagen Berensen. Der Deutsche hat seinen Job bei der Kripo gekündigt und sich in einer Villa mit Traumblick an Elbas Küste niedergelassen. Seine neue Haushaltshilfe Fiorina Luccarelli ist für seinen Geschmack zwar etwas zu temperamentvoll, aber immerhin spricht sie dank ihres Psychologiestudiums in Frankfurt fließend Deutsch.

Die beiden Kommissare Schatz und Herzl haben sich in ihrer neuen Heimat, der ostbayerischen Provinz, recht gut eingelebt – nicht zuletzt wegen der beiden Herzblätter Julia und Carlotta. Da bricht eine rätselhafte Mordserie über die ländliche Idylle herein. Ein putzsüchtiger Narzisst mordet sich scheinbar wahllos durch bayerische Gefilde. Das geht dann nicht nur Schatz und Herzl an die Substanz, auch Dienststellenleiter Rödel, an sich ein erklärter Gegner der beiden Münchner Kollegen, zieht diesmal an einem Strang mit ihnen.

Schatz und Herzl, die beiden Kriminaler aus München, sind wieder zurück in der Oberpfalz, um die Bösen zu jagen. Da fällt ihnen schon die erste Leiche vor die Füße: die junge Susanne Bergreiter ist von einem Felsen gefallen – oder gar gestoßen worden? Dann wird auch noch während der Ermittlungen ein menschliches Skelett ganz in der Nähe gefunden. Ein ziemlich komplizierter Fall. Da wären die beiden Herren aus München ohne den patenten Dorfpolizisten Häupl wieder richtig aufgeschmissen. Auch privat kann Herzl, sein Herzblatt, die Julia endlich wieder an seine Brust drücken.

Die beiden Kriminaler Robert Schatz und Georg Herzl sind nicht in Bestform. Unmittelbar nach einem komplizierten Fall taucht schon wieder eine Leiche auf. Ein toter Wanderer, drapiert auf einer Wiese, gibt ihnen Rätsel auf. Ob Unfall oder Mord ist nicht klar. Klar ist, dass die beiden Hauptkommissare von einer Panne in die nächste rutschen.

I inherited the business from my grams and had no experience running a boarding house when I stepped in. There’s no question I’ve had my hands full. Fractious boarders, broken appliances, leaky roofs, and a very distracting next-door neighbor who makes my engine rev. (Oops…did I say that last thing out loud?) The best thing I can do for myself is to stay away from Jack Walters. He has a tendency to cloud my thoughts and turn me into a babbling idiot. Forget I mentioned him. I mean, the real problem is the dead body my plucky little blonde dachshund, Iris, found in the flower beds.

Cary Grant Harrigan is a wanted man. Wanted for questioning by the Portneuf Gap Police Department about the bizarre murder of his fiancé. Wanted by the FBI regarding a couple of paintings in his possession which are either stolen originals or fabulous fakes.

Add a threatened lawsuit by the family of the deceased, along with bizarre clues that pop up but don’t add up, and Sadie’s morale dips lower than the meager balance in her bank account.
