This the final set of miniseries based of Leif G.W. Persson´s novels, with Rolf Lassgård in the leading role. As usual, Lassgård steals the show thanks to the most versatile character, even together with otherwise good character actors like e.g. Helena af Sandeberg and Alexej Manvelov, whose main task here is just to create occasions for Lassgård´s character to be witty and versatile.
And despite the fact that the story itself is less interesting than the personalities, their ideas and managing things, with decent symbiosis of comic and tragic moments, the whole is catchy to follow - unless you are fond of constant chases and shootings. The ending is not special, yet realistic, rounding nicely up the SVT´s Leif GW Persson trilogy.
Thus, a good work again, if inspectors like Beck or Wallander are to your liking. Being static should not automatically mean boring - and the creators of Scandinavian crime series are usually aware of that.
