The series stars Evelyn Hamann as the titular Adelheid Möbius, a witty secretary working for the Kriminalpolizei in Hamburg. She has the habit of solving the murder case by herself while the "real" investigators are still groping in the dark. However, Adelheid commonly finds herself in great danger when she exposes the murderer, only to be rescued by her colleagues.
