When Sophie learns from the sudden death of Mr. Vostell, she immediately forecasts a crime.
Mord mit Aussicht is a German satirical crime comedy television series, produced by ARD, following the adventures of Sophie Haas, a detective from the city that takes a job in the fictional country village of Hengasch. Much of the humour of the series derives from the clichés of both city and provincial lives, in a similar manner to the English comedy crime series Midsomer Murders.

Henghasch.
A safe-cracker escapes from prison and is seen heading towards Hengasch. The pressure is all on Sophie and Dietmar, since Barbel is out of commission from having to nurse a sick calf back to health.
Marie has received a message and is allowed to return to Cologne. But Jenny is bitterly disappointed because she needs Marie as a role model. When the owner of a horse farm, Alwin Lippes, is found dead in his horse walker, Marie is determined to solve this last case, but is happy to let Heino take the lead in the investigation. He dreams of a promotion through Marie's departure and is encouraged in this by Heike as much as possible. Suspicion initially falls on Alwin's intern Jonas, Mrs. Runkelbach's nephew. While Heino follows this lead, Marie investigates the world of horse breeder Ortlinde Deinert, who plays Wagner operas to her sensitive animals and sells the foals of her noble mares to international customers. Was her dispute with Alwin, which arouses Marie's interest, really a long time ago? Meanwhile, when Heino makes a mistake on the Jonas trail, he fears losing his career opportunity and tries to cover everything up. But he fails to see the danger that this puts Marie in. For Marie, saying goodbye to Hengasch is rather bittersweet. Despite looking forward to her old life, hasn't she grown fond of a few people in Hengasch? She quickly brushes that aside when she receives a second call from her boss.
