Hubert and Staller are tasked by Girwidz with picking up a box of Cuban cigars for City Councilor Josef Sandinger's birthday. The dead owner of Wolfratshausen's only cigar lounge, Franz Jäckl, reveals to them that smoking can be fatal. Struck down with a heavy ashtray, his murderer also stuffed one of his favorite cigars into his mouth. For Staller, this is an unmistakable indication that someone was trying to silence a talkative witness. While Hubert and Dr. Anja Licht secure the crime scene, Staller meets cat owner Gabi Stötzke. Living alone with 20 cats, she is known throughout the neighborhood as a sinister catwoman, but this doesn't stop Staller from displaying his courtship behavior. But besides Staller's love affair, there is still another case to be solved. The investigation not only leads to the trail of print shop owner Werner Stubenmayer. To Girwidz's horror, City Council Chairman Sandinger also appears to be involved in the case. Hubert and Staller soon discover that cigars can be a lucrative investment. Through their colleague Sonja Wirth, the two police officers realize that the obvious isn't always the motive.
