About

You’ll like this if you enjoy tense Nordic noir crime cases with two teams working across borders and building momentum from episode to episode; Not for you if you want a lighter, more straightforward mystery, or if you dislike slow-burn investigations like The Killing or Wallander.

Pros: gripping Nordic crime; strong investigator chemistry; memorable main detective | Cons: repetitive case structure; some uneven writing; complaints about character portrayal
