About this listen

In April 2007, two German police officers were found shot in their patrol car in the city of Heilbronn. When forensic investigators examined the crime scene, they were surprised to discover a female DNA profile that also matched traces found at a number of other unsolved crimes. The same genetic evidence had been identified at burglaries, thefts and several murders, in total around forty different crime scenes across Germany, Austria and France between 1993 and 2009. It appeared as though the same woman was moving seamlessly across Europe, leaving behind death and confusion, yet without ever being seen. She became known as “The Phantom of Heilbronn”, and the hunt for this mysterious figure would go on to become one of the most extensive and widely discussed police investigations in German history.
