Filming of the eight-part series has just started in the Helsingborg area. The police solve cases inspired by real events, and each investigation spans two episodes.

Behind the series is screenwriter Gunnar AK Järvstad, with Olof Spaak as conceptual director.

The streaming service SkyShowtime has established itself in Sweden with international series such as "Yellowstone", "Landman" and "The Jackal", but is also focusing on Swedish series.

Last fall, for example, Felix Herngren's new comedy series "Where the Sun Always Shines" premiered. Later this year, the drama series "Trion" will be released, based on Johanna Hedman's novel of the same name.
