What sets it apart
May contain story progression spoilers
Franz Eberhofer's police work unfolds amid eccentric Bavarian residents, family comic business, and a murder investigation.
Eberhofer must both clarify his mother's murder and help gambling addict Lotto Otto evade money collectors.
The plot centers on Eberhofer alongside Rudi Birkenberger, Susi, Papa Eberhofer, Oma Eberhofer, and Moratschek.
The presence of money collectors and mafia-related conflict turns criminal danger into a farcical obstacle for the provincial police officer.
