Dr. Mark Benecke - Serial Murder - EXPEDITION ERDE

DR. MARK BENECKE is the world's most famous forensic biologist. Covered in tattoos and piercings, the "Lord of the Maggots" captivates audiences across Germany with his work.

Benecke was trained by the FBI and operates internationally. His field: murder cases that seem all but hopeless. When there appears to be no way forward, Mark Benecke gets the call. Every crime scene is a trove of evidence. You won't spot it at first glance, but his helpers - maggots and flies - can provide crucial answers. Benecke's job isn't death itself, but what comes after. When maggots expose a killer, he knows he's done his job right. Even the tiniest organisms on a body can yield the decisive clue.

There is no such thing as a perfect murder - because insects never sleep. Grab one of the sought-after tickets and be there live when the Lord of the Maggots takes the stage.
