Miss Merkel - Ein Kreuzfahrt-Krimi

Angela Merkel, the former German Chancellor, is enjoying a well-earned vacation on a luxurious cruise liner. The idyll shatters when a passenger goes overboard. Authorities ashore deem it an accident, but Angela, with her famous analytical mind, sees clear signs of murder. Unable to stand aside, she launches her own investigation, confronting eccentric passengers, secretive crew members, and her own past. This 2025 crime comedy transforms a political icon into an unlikely detective, whose method relies not on chases and shootouts, but on cold logic and the famed 'Merkelian pause'. The investigation unfolds amidst champagne and canapés, where every smiling fellow traveler could be the culprit.
