A poignant episode

Warning: Spoilers
Once again "Wallander" succeeds in delivering a gripping story, this time involving a lorry found on the outskirts of Ystad which contained many dead refugees, the only survivor was a young baby. Their first clue is a photograph of two children hidden in the shoe of one of the dead, it is important as it shows them in front of a convent inside Sweden. It turns out that the nuns have been helping smuggle the refuges into Sweden thinking that they are doing the right thing. They don't know that the refugees aren't the main cargo, that is heroin and the people in charge of the operation consider the refugees to be expendable.

As I've come to expect with this series the acting was good, especially from the core characters of Kurt and Linda Wallander and Stefan. While most of the story concerns their investigation there is a good action scene at the end when the smugglers are confronted.
