Launched in 2016, the brilliant 90-minute crime drama Der Zürich-Krimi returns this month on German pubcaster Das Erste with Borchert und das Geheimnis des Mandanten and Borchert und die dunkeln Schatten.
Der Zürich-Krimi stars the great Christian Kohlund (Das Traumhotel, Black Forest Clinic) as the melancholic Thomas Borchert, an "unlicensed attorney" who works in Zurich for lawyer Dominique Kuster and often acts as a private investigator. Ina Paule Klink (Wilsberg) co-stars as Dominique. The other regulars are Pierre Kiwitt as Police captain Marco Furrer, Robert Hunger-Bühler (Dr. Reto Zanger), Susi Banzhaf as Regula Gabrielli (Dominique's assistant) and Yves Wüthrich (Urs Aeggi, Furrer's deputy). Andrea Zogg, who plays taxi driver Beat Bürki, is absent from this episode.
Thomas Borchert and Dominique Kuster attend the vernissage of portrait photographer Corinna Riemer. Stephan Altweger, the nephew of entrepreneur Jürg Altweger, shows arrogance towards Italian caterer Giovanni Lazzari but Thomas puts him straight. Outside the gallery, Borchert sees a man leaving the courtyard in a hurry and he discovers that Jürg Altweger has been shot dead. Surprisingly, Captain Marco Furrer arrests Giovanni Lazzari. The caterer was heard arguing with Jürg and gunshot residues were found on his hand. Thomas and Dominique accept to defend Giovanni but the Italian is hiding something to his lawyers.
