We'll bring in

the woman for questioning.

Naturally, we won't

tell her what this is all about.

So don't worry about that.

Well, Munster and Moreno...

What do you think?

Is that Jaan G. Hennan?

- How long have you been married?

- A little over three years now.

- Where did your husband grow up?

- In Ockfener.

- What's his line of business?

- Imports.

Objets de'art. Souvenir items

and native African and Asian art.

And you've been in business together

during your time in Kaalbringen?

CASE "G"

Has your husband been married before?

Based on a novel by Hakan Nesser

Yes.

Have you ever met his ex-wife?

- Why do you ask?

- Please answer the question.

No, I've never met her.

She remarried and moved to Berlin.

Don't understand

why you're asking me all this?

Are you sure that your husband's

name is Frank Kellerman

SEVEN YEARS AGO:

and that he grew up in Ockfener?

Have you ever had any doubts?

Hi there.

Has he ever

been evasive about his past?

Well, we've talked about the past...

Hello. - Hello.

So, what have we got?

Have you ever met anyone who

could confirm his roots? Relatives...

Barbara Hennan. Her husband

found her around midnight.

He father is dead, but met

his mother, at a nursing home.

- There's no water in the pool.

- Was she blind?

met her that first spring

and she died that summer.

Her blood alcohol level was 0.17

percent, no sign of any violence.

Why did you leave Germany?

- Any trace evidence?

- Just from her husband.

We were tired of our jobs.

came into some money.

Has she been moved?

She could have been pushed.

So we left. We had vacationed

in Kaalbringen and we like it here.

- It could be suicide.

- Wearing a bathing suit?

Does the name Jaan G. Hennan

mean anything to you?

- One girl wore a wedding dress...

- Thanks.

Hennan? No.

- Anyone talk to the husband?

- Just briefly.

Who is he?

But ran a check on him.

His name is Jaan G. Hennan.

He served two years

in prison on a drugs charge.

No further questions.

He moved to the US and

he returned home two months ago.

This is a very delicate case

His wife, Barbara, is American.

We must ask you not

to disclose what took place here.

Let's wait for Van Veeteren.

Not even to your husband,

just to ensure his safety.

DeKlerkk is a fool.

- The police academy made a mistake.

- Let's see what the Germans have.

Hi...

Elise Kellerman

will tell her husband everything.

- Happy birthday.

- Thanks.

DeKlerkk

has to put him under surveillance.

May come in? won't stay long,

just long enough for a coffee.

Someone has to talk to DeKlerkk

or I'll do it myself...

We can't tail Kellerman simply because

Veerlangen took his picture.

Has your mother called?

- Anyone can tell that this is G.

- I'm not convinced.

She called to see

if her gift had arrived.

Elise's testimony was very credible

- What did she send?

- A watch.

She obviously doesn't

know who her husband is.

A nice one?

Nice...

Don't you trust my judgment?

- Moreno?

- Where are the towels?

- I'll be right with you.

That's not the issue here.

Munster... asked you

a straightforward question.

Why don't you

bring her along to dinner tonight?

I've always had faith in your

judgment, but this time I'm not sure.

Hello.

What do you mean?

I'll call...

mean, I'll see you tonight.

It feels like it's personal,

that you hate G.

Why wasn't interviewed earlier?

I've had to stay up all night,

and considering the circumstances...

- I'm very sorry for your loss

- Hello, I'm Munster.

Realise

that your situation is difficult,

so maybe it's just as well

to cut to the chase.

I'd like to ask you something:

Was Barbara aware

What did Veerlangen see?

that the pool was to be drained?

We talked about it yesterday morning,

but she must have forgotten.

Forgotten?

But she must have noticed it

when she was on the diving board?

It was pitch black. turned on

the lights when found her.

Apologise for the early hour, but

do you know where this street is?

It still seems a bit odd, though...

diving into the dark like that.

Seem to be lost.

Hang on.

- People don't do that.

- Barbara could.

She liked mountain climbing and sky-

diving. She enjoyed taking risks.

- Are you sure this is the right area?

- No.

So, where were you when your wife

decided to go swimming?

I'm sorry, don't know where this is.

At a restaurant, the Coloseum.

got there... right before eight.

- Anything else can do for you?

- No. Sony about waking you up.

- left around 1 pm.

- Alone?

The place was crowded,

but, no, there was no one with me.

- Why wasn't your wife with you?

- wanted to be alone.

Do you know

whether she had any visitors?

We've only lived here for two months.

We moved here from the States.

The Germans have gotten back to us

and they confirm...

- How long have you been married?

- Four years.

...Elise Kellerman's stony.

The people on Veerlangen's pictures

are Frank and Elise Kellerman.

Did you love your wife?

- That's not true.

- So why did he take pictures of them?

guess could put on

a grieving-husband act

Maybe he made a mistake.

...But for the past year all I've

felt was boredom, irritation.

Like Van Veeteren, who refuses

to believe the man's not Hennan.

And, frankly, a sense of disgust.

We're talking about

an established fact.

Would her death

benefit you in any way?

- What do you mean?

- went to see Kellerman.

might as well

tell you this straight off:

Barbara... took out

a life insurance policy for Barbara.

Obtained a set of his fingerprints

and took them to Maardam.

For two million.

Our technician checked to see if they

were a match for Jaan G. Hennan.

But that doesn't mean killed her.

He found more than 50 shared

characteristics. Have a look.

So it's pretty certain.

- Did you socialise?

- They had us over for dinner.

- Did you see Kellerman?

- Yes.

They didn't plan to stay on.

Did he recognise you?

They rented the house,

so there was no reason to socialise.

Possibly. He probably did.

- What was their relationship like?

- really couldn't say.

She had a migraine and went to bed.

- Anything gone down?

- Want some?

- Did you notice anything else?

- She had a tattoo.

- It's been in the car for two weeks.

- It's fine.

All right...

- Are you ready to have a look?

- Yes.

It's eleven minutes past three.

Elise Kellerman is back.

- What about G?

- He's kept out of sight.

Yes, that's her...

Thanks.

Thank you very much

Look at this picture.

What does it tell us?

If anything should come to mind,

please let me know...

What are we missing

that Veerlangen saw?

Oh, a tan car

was parked nearby their house.

Well, there is a possibility that

Hennan told Veerlangen something...

- What make was it?

- don't remember.

Hennan would never reveal

anything to a man like Veerlangen.

Saw it Thursday morning.

A man was sitting behind the wheel.

- Could you describe him?

- I'm sorry. didn't look closely.

He was roughly your age.
