Midnight Sun Series 1 2016 Created and directed by Måns Mårlind and Björn Stein, screenplay by Måns Mårlind. A Swedish French police procedural set in Kiruna, Sweden's northern most town.
A French national is killed near the town and a French detective comes to help with the investigation. Kahina is from Paris and she's got a major amount of personal baggage. She works with Anders, a deputy police prosecutor. He's got a good bunch of personal baggage too. Everyone's in the town and surrounding area has a lot of personal baggage. The whole show is one long luggagefest.
Two more bodies pop up. Local citizens are attacked and our cops are constantly getting knocked around and out. One of them is the third victim. Clues are slow to come but they start to put the case together. Increased knowledge brings more danger, there's a decent body count, it's rather more brutal and vengeful than most of the cop shows I prefer. On the plus side, there's plenty of nice scenery and helicopter rides.
There's only the one series, I doubt I'll need to watch it again anytime.
