Summary
While working in the museum young photographer Christa Augustin discovers a diamond stash hidden in one of the exhibits. She palms four but the next day, strange men are hanging around near the exhibit. Minutes later, a man falls to his death from the museum balcony. Moser and Rex are on the scene but Moser is not convinced that the man's death was an accident. The good
I liked the plot and the way not even the audience knew for certain who was the murderer. Also good was the crackpot who wandered among the exhibits, claiming the stuffed animals needed to be left in peace. Böck and Rex have a competition going with Höllerer keeping score.
The bad
The solution was a little too convenient.
