The Stasi - cracking East German crime - the thrilling first episode of Hertzberg's dark series about the East German secret police.

For Lieutenant Reim of the Stasi, life in East Berlin is a satisfying blend of days behind a desk and nights in front of a bottle.
But when a senior officer has a messy affair, it falls to Reim to do the clearing up. It's a straightforward job. Lean on a few people to get them to shut up. Intimidate neighbours, bribe officials and appeal to the socialist conscience of Party members. But as Reim starts his interrogations, he realises his boss is hiding more than just a lover.
Reim begins to investigate his superior -- and what he uncovers puts his own life at risk.
