Season 4 finds the unlikely detective duo in Vienna in 1909, where the double murder of a senior public official and an arms dealer in police custody has shaken the city to its core.

Vienna, 1909. Oskar must identify a high-level traitor known as Mephisto, who threatens the very existence of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

A murder takes Oskar and Max’s investigation into the glamorous world of underground, high-stakes gambling. Oskar’s life continues to be complicated by his feelings for Therese, who he tries to help by threatening her violent ex-husband.

Episode 4: “The Face of Mephisto” (Sunday, January 26, 2025)

Still in hiding, Oskar identifies the high-powered gamblers at the secretive game Max joined before he was shot.
