Hoofdcommissaris Köster, "der Alte", lost zaken op zijn eigen manier op, vaak op het randje van de wet. Zo laat hij zich bijvoorbeeld gijzelen om een onderwereldfiguur op te pakken of wordt hij zelf afperser. Teamwork is niet echt zijn ding, maar als de nood aan de man komt, kan hij altijd vertrouwen op zijn assistent Heyman. Na de periode Köster komt hoofdcommissaris Kress, die in tegenstelling tot Köster wel een teamspeler is. Door zijn rustige en bezonnen, maar doortastende manier van werken hebben ook onder hem de criminelen niets te lachen. Na Kress komt hoofdcommissaris Rolf die weer wordt opgevolgd door hoofdcommissaris Richard Voss.
