Set against the scenic backdrop of the historic Hanseatic city of Wismar on the Baltic Sea, this series unfolds in a region rich with history, natural beauty, and architectural charm. Nestled between Lübeck and Rostock, Wismar and its surroundings add depth and atmosphere to each story. Though a beloved tourist destination, the city is not immune to crime. With dry humor, northern German charm, and quiet determination, the SOKO team takes on complex cases that reveal the darker side of this picturesque locale.
