St. Pauli, Hamburg's red-light district. Home of Kranzow's strip club Blue Banana, the hottest address in a hot neighborhood. It's where you'll find Lajana, the club's blond bombshell and top stripper, raw sexual energy at ist most mind-blowing. And where you'll find Kranzow's loyal bodyguard Sugar, worn-out streetwalker Mizzi and tough-talking transsexual Karin. Graf, a 'respectable' fish wholesaler who pulls a lot of strings to keep St. Pauli sinful, wants the Blue Banana, badly. But someone else is calling the shots now. Someone a lot bigger than either Graf or Kranzow. Like it or not, Graf and Kranzow join forces to face the overwhelming tide of violence that is about to sweep through their lives. Vast in scopes, structured along broad, sweeping lines, peopled with bold and colourful characters, King of Sin is a spellbinding story from Hamburg's gritty underworld. It is a tale of tough yet endearing figures caught up in a vortex of corruption, a gripping panorama of blood and sin, treachery and conspiracy, sex and murder...
