7/10
Another Episode Based on Child Abuse and Its Impliations

This episode deals with two related events. The first is the tragic death of a little boy who seems to have been abducted from a day care. His body is eventually found in the harbor. The second is the fact that a convicted pedophile has moved into the neighborhood near the boy's family. Of course, people begin to put two and two together and the neighborhood watch gets involved. We actually begin to feel sorry for this man who lives with his mother. He is trying to start a new life, but, naturally, there is little chance of that. Interestingly, there is nothing to connect him to the crime, but the retaliation gets more and more violent. There is a subplot as Wallander is attracted to an attractive prosecutor whom we've met before. Good episode dealing with a delicate subject.
