Kerstin is a successful department head of a tax consulting firm in Berlin. She is respected and feared by her employees. Only one thing is too short in her life: for years she had no sex and no husband by her side. At the company, she wants to show that she can also party properly. The next morning, she wakes up in a hotel bed with two employees next to her: the hated opponent Simon and the "footman" Gregor. With the aid of her assistant Achim, she has lost all the memories of the previous evening. Her employees are forcing her to silence. Four months later, she realizes that she is pregnant and one of her nightmares is the father.

Diziye konu olan olaylarda hep tanıdık temalar hakim. Almanya’da gündelik yaşamı etkileyen ya da geçmişte etkilemiş olan her konu, dizide ele alınıyor ya da alındı: Almanya’nın birleşmesi, terör, organ ticareti, küreselleşme, ırkçılık, uyuşturucu kullanımı, çevre skandalları, çocuk istismarı, işsizlik, sanayi suçları, yaşlı bakımıyla ilgili sorunlar, ya da eş bulma hizmetleri. Gerçek yaşamdakinden farklı olarak, toplumsal ayrılıklar “Tatort”ta her zaman çözülmese de, cinayetin faili her zaman bulunuyor ve pazar akşamı herkes yatağına huzur içinde gidiyor. Edebiyatbilimci Jochen Vogel’in sözleriyle “Tatort, Alman toplumunu anlatan bir roman.”
