Are the disadvantaged used, exploited, and easily scapegoated whenever the long arm of the law catches up with criminals? - This episode in the Usedom Crime Drama series focuses on such questions. Bribery, conspiracies and deception are the tools by which the "haves" assure their own financial prosperity, while the "have nots" continue in endless toil without much chance of advancing their lot in life.
A suspected homicide brings to light the character of several players. A seemingly shifty prosecutor soon redeems himself, and the female lead (a middle aged former detective with a troubled past as a convicted murderer with lengthy prison sentence) suffers yet another harsh disappointment. Although the ongoing drama within the main cast is compelling, the overall quality of this story is mediocre. As a fan of the series, I watched to the end, but was left disappointed. This team has had better shows!
