Tainted Blood (12/49)

A murder leads homicide cops Batic and Leitmayr on the trail of medical research into leukemia, where a killer hides amid the life-saving medical staff?

Was it a crime of passion? Jealousy? Revenge? Tragedy strikes the Hübner family when the body of Werner Hübner is found by the riverside. Or did the once-successful graphic artist take his own life in despair over the failure of his business? His widow Anne is left alone with a son and daughter and foster child Salima, who has leukemia and was brought to Munich for treatment by a charity, which places the child patients with foster families. Homicide detectives Ivo Batic and Franz Leitmayr soon want to know the reason for the dead man's frequent outbursts of anger, which the hospital staff and other foster families witnessed. But there seems to be no motive amid the clinic staff, who are preoccupied with trying to find a cure for the terrible blood cancer their patients suffer from? Another gripping mystery with Germany's most popular detective duo.
