Pauline Schwebe is a police officer and single. She is touched when she discovers Leo Golombeck's handwritten wish list at a traffic light. In it, the seven-year-old invites a lonely soul to a Christmas party with his family. In return, he wouldn't mind if the lonely soul brought a few presents. Pauline visits Leo, who lives in modest circumstances with his sister Lotte and his dad Daniel. As Pauline's parents are constantly nagging her that she is still single, she quickly invites Daniel and his children to the family Christmas party and introduces him as her new boyfriend.

The story revolves around seven-year-old Londri Mingolo's flight from the Congo to Germany and his problems settling into German society.

Caro hasn't actually been able to do anything for a long time. As a nurse on a dementia ward, she has hardly taken any vacation in the last two years and has accumulated countless hours of overtime. But it is only when her dearest resident, Mrs. Rumi, dies that the barrel overflows: Instead of going to work the next morning, Caro goes to a locker at Frankfurt Central Station, takes out a packed, brand-new rucksack and simply sets off - without a destination, without a plan, without a cell phone and without any outdoor experience.

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.”
