Vier Frauen und ein Todesfall is an Austrian crime television series, first aired on the Austrian television channel "ORF eins" in 2005.
The show also aired in Switzerland on SRF1, in Germany on RTL Crime and on the Franco-German TV network Arte dubbed in French.
The sending-rights were sold to Slovenia, Bosnia, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Russia and Denmark.
They always have their own theories about how people died and start investigations themselves because of the incompetence of the village police.
Apart from the setting in a very picturesque landscape the show offers a typical Austrian sense of humour and a sometimes unorthodox image of women.
