At the Moka Efti, Charlotte eavesdrops on a meeting between Trokhin, Wendt and Zorgiebel regarding the seized train. Arndt confesses to Moritz that he lied and told the police Toni killed Naumann, because he is in love with Moritz and wanted to protect him. Max Fuchs, an underling of Weintraub with connections to the mysterious fixer, begins making moves to take over Weintraub's operation. Filming began in early 2021 [16] [17] and was completed in September 2021, with the production having shot for 129 days at Studio Babelsberg and at locations around Berlin. Kutscher's undertaking to portray the downfall of the Weimar Republic through the medium of detective fiction is both ambitious and utterly convincing.

The Ullsteinhaus was used as the editorial offices of the Tempo (newspaper) newspaper, which were actually located there at the time.Ullrich goes over Tilly's possessions and in a locket finds a hair that belongs to Weintraub, thus revealing him as the murderer. Inspector Rath investigates and he finds out a lot about his new colleagues and Berlin along the way.

The group performed in concert in May 2018 and, due to popular demand, toured the country later that year. Edgar and Weintraub meet with rival gangs and accuse them of trying to sabotage their operation, which they deny. Gereon and Charlotte interview Trechkov, who gives them the address for the Red Fortress printing house. The Armenian asks Gereon to broker a peace conference meeting between the leaders of Berlin's Ringvereines. The police headquarters, once located directly behind it, and other surrounding buildings, were destroyed in WWII, but were recreated with computer simulations.Wendt proposes allowing the Nazis to create civil unrest to further the conservatives' plans; the General disagrees. Rath catches Krempin, who admits to sabotage but denies killing Winter, before being shot dead by a cloaked figure, resembling the figure Brooks saw. Kutscher’s 6 th novel, “Lunapark”, will be released in November 2016 and will be set in summer 1934. Sandstone Press has launched a Kickstarter campaign to bring the grit and glamour of Lunapark, Volker Kutscher’s hotly anticipated sixth Gereon Rath mystery, to English language readers.
