English Translations of Scandinavian/Nordic Mysteries & Thrillers discussion

Forgive me please if thi is old news!! Currently on episode 2 of this riveting show- highly recommend!

“What makes Modus an icy breath of fresh air beyond the fact that it’s set in December is that it’s not a whodunnit. The very first episode reveals the cold-blooded serial killer (though not his identity). Driving this thriller are many questions of “why,” as well as some unusual behavior by those close to the victims.

The audience knows who is doing the killing, but the protagonist Inger Johanne Vik (Melinda Kinnaman) does not. She’s a criminal profiler and psychologist ­–she’s even worked for the FBI in Washington, DC – but she’s opted out of active duty and is promoting her new book. Circumstances and coincidence will draw Inger and her children – one of them a vulnerable teenager with autism – into the killer’s path.“
