Illegal gambling at the Reitbacher country inn? When Hubert and Staller investigate the suspicion, the supposed poker game turns out to be harmless - until a gunshot suddenly rings out from the next room. Josef Brunner, co-owner of the Brunnerhof, had apparently left the gaming table shortly before the police arrived and taken his own life. His brothers Alois and Gerd are just as shocked as the innkeeper Sepp Reitbacher. A short suicide note in the dead man's room turns out to be authentic. Did existential fears drive Josef Brunner to commit suicide, or was the "Mausi" mentioned in the remains the reason for the suicide? However, no one in the man's immediate circle wants to know the ominous woman. And then Anja Licht's vacation replacement, Dr. Michael Hartwig from Munich, is also certain that Brunner's time of death was half an hour before Hubert and Staller arrived. The two find it difficult to believe the know-it-all from the big city, after all, they heard the gunshot. It's the dead rabbit of newly arrived Jens Harmsen and the unconventional driving style of real estate agent Jochen Kölbel that put the investigators on the right track. In fact, more than one person had an interest in Josef Brunner's death.
