DÖDLIG AVLEDNING – MISGUIDED JUSTICE
By Camilla Läckberg
AFTER A DEMONSTRATION that calls for tougher penalties for sexual offences descends into chaos in a city park, a recently released sex offender is found stabbed to death among the crowd. Amid the turmoil, a young female police officer is seen retreating, and a report of misconduct lands on Pauline’s desk at the Special Investigations Unit. When the team reviews the officers’ body camera footage, they discover something disturbing: sequences are missing, as if someone within the police force has deliberately cut out crucial moments to steer the investigation astray.
SET WITHIN THE Swedish police’s elite Special Investigations Unit, this crime series explores what happens when the justice system is forced to investigate itself.
CREATED BY CAMILLA LÄCKBERG and developed together with writers Anna Bågstam, Malin Karim, and Lisa Bjerre, the series combines powerful standalone investigations with strong overarching arcs of internal betrayal and moral compromise.
