Professional diver Sven has a guilty conscience: his job means he has too little time for his family. He even almost misses the cruise ship on which he is supposed to look after their daughter while his wife does research for an article about the ship. But then terrorists take over the MS SeaStar and take Sven's wife and daughter hostage. They threaten to blow up the entire ship.

For the young, ambitious journalist Julia, her job and "enjoying life" are currently the top priorities. There's no place for men – until the day young Miles comes into her life.

The series is about a cruise ship that travels to places around the world.

Sputnik is a former colleague of Otto's from the People's Police and is constantly coming up with new business ideas for stores and pubs where the team meets.
