Roland Jankowsky - When Overbeck Comes...

Most people know Roland Jankowsky as the slightly peculiar Commissioner Overbeck from the cult crime series "Wilsberg". In this signature role, the "Dirty Harry of Münster" was voted "Germany's Coolest Commissioner" by TV audiences in 2018. But Jankowsky is a man of many talents - whether as a TV or stage actor, a singer, or an audiobook narrator, his comedic flair is unmistakably his trademark.

In his crime reading "When Overbeck Comes...", he gets to put all of that to full use. The "criminal" short stories he performs come alive through spot-on regional dialects, and he inhabits each character so vividly that the audience can practically see them standing there.

Humour is never in short supply either, because not every bullet that hits actually hits the right person. Each of Jankowsky's readings becomes a wry, thoroughly entertaining evening for any crime fiction fan.
