The situation on the ground remains tense, food and resources are scarce and the tensions between the power blocs have increased. The lack of space saver is only the bare minimum of fuel and equipment to their work to go to. Nevertheless, they are going after each received emergency to help. One day receives the "Florence Nightingale" a distress call from the luxury liner "barracuda", but when they arrive there, they received no reply from the ship. Grischa Roman, an old friend and colleague of Mark Brandis has command of the Nightingale. It shall act by a small team to the ship to go to get a picture of the plight. In the search of the ship, see the guests and crew on dead. Only two have survived, the president, who was on board the ship is seriously injured and found in a high-security cabin, is the son of a wealthy man and his sleeping noise from. The two are brought to earth when Grischa Roman was invited to the De-briefing, he gets the information that the President died on the severity of injuries. But it gets worse, the De-briefing he is asked if he knows those allegedly responsible for the attack on the luxury liner. Griescha denies this and can not explain why he asked this question. When he asks, he gets the explanation that those responsible are Roma, as he himself. Griescha makes his anger at these racist accusations air, after which he is charged and detained by the responsible inspector of complicity.

My Conclusion: As might be expected, also Planet Action Z is absolutely worth hearing again. The usual perfect acoustic background and the very good job of spokesman put a directly into the action. You hear not only, but experienced in his head every single second live with. What I really liked is the debate on the issue of re-surging xenophobia, as they're sorry, but in real life and in particular in Germany perceive again. So the audience is led the man in mind, regardless of how it evolves holds, unfortunately, tends to old, wrong patterns of behavior to fall back if his standard of living is threatened. Nikolai von Michalewsky manages the hard way about the fine line to describe an entertaining adventure and to raise the admonishing finger to the reader / listener in mind to keep the xenophobia can never be the answer and must. Also very good, I find the fact that in this episode not Mark Brandis, but his faithful friend Grisha novel the protagonist of this adventure is.
