About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want longer, case-driven Scandinavian mysteries with a grounded mood and recurring characters, similar to The Bridge; Not for you if you need consistently tight realism or prefer faster, lighter crime shows.
Pros: engaging cases; characters you care about; improved later writing | Cons: uneven early plots; occasional implausible moments; some irritating habits
