Immediately after her arrival in South Tyrol, "Frau Commissario", as her new colleagues from the Bolzano police department call her, gets caught up in a wild shootout. The investigator, who comes from Frankfurt, also has to take cover in her new home. Her husband Thomas wants to take over the indebted winery of his ex-mother-in-law Katharina, who fires one poisoned arrow after the other at Sonja.

The mysterious discovery of a skeleton causes her a headache. The remains belong to a young woman who has been missing for ten years. The deeper Sonja into this unsolved casepenetrates, the more evidence speaks for an involvement of her husband. The unplanned flirt with the extremely good-looking Italian colleague Matteo does not make their situation any easier.
Dark secrets and a catastrophic new beginning in South Tyrol: Chiara Schoras stumbles into an adventure as an unfamiliar inspector that she would have liked to have spared herself. Against the breathtaking backdrop of the Dolomites, the Italian way of life and the German mentality collide. With high-tech investigative methods, the urban investigator penetrates a web of family entanglements and obscure connections in an archaic society: With this, director Marcus Ulbricht defines a framework that is unparalleled in German television crime thrillers. The atmospheric alpine thriller was created in Sextental and in Bozen.

The former city commissioner Sonja Schwarz has hardly settled down in the South Tyrolean wine region when things get really thick: the body of a girl who disappeared ten years ago turns up and her husband Thomas of all people is suspected of murder. Determined to relentlessly clear up the case, she wants to prove his innocence despite incriminating evidence. But the combative "Mrs. Commissario" is on her own: Not only her colleague Jonas Kerschbaumer, but also the new supervisor Matteo Zanchetti considers him the main suspect. Nevertheless, Sonja courageously targets the powerful local politician Stefan Keller, who was also in contact with the girl at the time. Her arbitrary investigations and the capo's feelings towards her ensure that that there is a lot of crunching in the newly assembled detective team. Unfortunately, there is only little time to get used to each other, because there is still more to do: The mafia wants a lost drug shipment back - and is over corpses. And that's only because the casual worker Rainer Gruber believed, with a chance discovery of two kilogramsHitting the jackpot with cocaine. Instead of finally getting rid of all his money worries, he puts himself and others in danger - even his own family. Because he and his accomplice unsuspectingly offer the hot goods for sale to the shady noble restaurateur Rossi of all people. However, he maintains the best contacts with the mafia, which has long since sent a professional to retrieve it.
Crime specialist Thorsten Näter has cleverly embedded the exciting case in the grandiose scenery of the South Tyrolean landscape and can fall back on two experienced professionals in cameraman Achim Hasse and screenwriter Jürgen Werner. In "The Fifth Commandment", the investigators around Chiara Schoras, as a desperate and combative "Frau Commissario", not only have to solve the death of a girl, but also stop a series of mafia murders. They are reinforced by Tobias Oertel, who returns as Capo Zanchetti, and Floriane Daniel as the unconventional coroner Heidi Grüner. Other roles include Xaver Hutter, Charleen Deetz, Lisa Kreuzer, Gabriel Raab, Hanspeter Müller-Drossaart, Heio von Stetten, Julia Stemberger, Roeland Wiesnekker and Thomas Sarbacher. 

Even if she is on her own: Sonja Schwarz fights like a lioness for her husband Thomas, who is in custody on suspicion of murder. Finally, evidence of his innocence appears. His daughter Laura and Jonas Kerschbaumer's brother Ludwig, who works as a shepherd over the lonely Alpine mountain routes, have a part in this. Through the two, the inspector gets the crucial clue that the murdered Evelyn Kronstadt owned a cell phone. In fact: hidden under a cupboard, she finds the mobile phone. The call list and intimate photos now direct the suspicion of murder to local politician Stefan Keller. He had a relationship with the then 15-year-old. But is that why he is the culprit? The key lies in further unsolved murders of girls, which are being evaluated by the Bozen Criminal Police Office. In addition, Sonja Schwarz, Jonas Kerschbaumer and Capo Zanchetti explain the death of the innkeeper Grandl, who - apparently stunned - was run over by a tractor. There are plenty of suspects and motives: first and foremost his rowdy neighbor Riedlinger, whose wife Bettina had an affair with Grandl. Stepson also behave strangelyToni, who speculates on the farm, and the Ukrainian housekeeper Ekaterina, neither of whom claim to have heard anything on the night of death. Even noble restaurateur Rossi, who unsuccessfully submitted an offer to buy the farm during the lecture and maintains good contacts with the mafia, seems to have his fingers in the pie. The TV thriller is scenically immersed in the rough mountain world, where the bush economy is bustling and heavy brawls end with local rounds. But there, too, there is greed, jealousy, blackmail and murder.
"The Bolzano thriller: Herz-Jesu-Blut" was staged by a well-rehearsed team: director Thorsten Näter and cameraman Achim Hasse. The screenplay is again by Jürgen Werner.
