Plot:
Detective Inspector Kari Sorjonen is one of the most respected officers at the National Bureau of Investigation in Finland.

How peaceful is life on the border between two worlds?

Review:
Rating: Watch it / It depends / [Skip it]
  • Why is it that whenever a cop moves and takes a job in a peaceful village, violence breaks out like the plague?
    Sorjonen is almost too good, and I'm curious to see how that unfolds. He irritates his colleagues by being aloof, though they understand he is a genius.
    The first two episodes kept me interested, but it's always the conclusion that can break a mystery show. This has a lot of players that could meet in a confrontation at the end. Sorjonen is bound to get himself in trouble with the mayor that is wanting to bring a casino to town. I'm willing to bet corners have been cut.
