Ballauf - 49 - Unter Druck
This case made headlines: The young management consultant Carsten Moll was murdered in the Cologne "Abendblatt". Someone threw him over a parapet in the publishing house into the abyss. Just a few hours earlier, the victim had had an argument with the head of the publishing house, Manfred Peters. He openly admits that he threw Moll out of the factory because his checks caused unrest among the workforce. The publisher of the "Abendblatt" is about to merge. There is talk of job cuts. But is the culprit really to be found among the employees? Inspectors Ballauf and Schenk are investigating in all directions. Apparently, the top management of the publishing house does not agree on all points about the media company's new course.
The fact that the up-and-coming managing director Lars Fraude brought the management consultants into the company was initially met with skepticism by the publishing manager Ludwig Brinkmann and the HR manager Raimund Kahn. Alex and Valentin, the two colleagues of the murdered management consultant, are noticeably reticent. But the inspectors learn that there were obviously tensions between Moll and his ambitious team leader Rita Landmann...
