What Season 1 of Inspector Rex

In Vienna, a homicide squad from the Austrian Criminal Police works with three men and a German Shepherd named Rex. The dog is no office pet: he tracks corpses, detects drugs and smuggling, and helps his partners as if he had extra eyes and ears. Inspector Richard Moser leads the group, alongside Stockinger, whom everyone calls Stocki. Each case calls for gathering clues, questioning suspects and staying one step ahead of the culprit. The first episodes open with a bomb attack in the city center and go on to a restaurant owner whose case doesn't add up. Later, the team runs into an organ trafficking ring and the kidnapping of three elderly women, where everyone seems to be hiding something.
