Inspector Rex

Beautiful Death (7x3)

Uitzenddatum: Apr 11, 2001

With his pictures of dead plants and animals, art photographer Felix Rieder always provides creepy delight for visitors to his vernissages. This time, however, Rieder comes up with new gruesome motifs: two seemingly dead women, eerily draped and laid out. When the mother of the young Iris Manker, who has been missing for a week, turns to Brandtner for help, he makes a disturbing discovery: Felix Rieder, of all people, was last seen with the girl. The photographer also readily admits to having taken photos with Iris for a coffee table book, but he cannot explain her disappearance. Brandtner lacks the evidence to pin down Rieder, but the inspector does not admit defeat so easily, a dramatic cat-and-mouse game unfolds...
