The Complete Miniseries
DS Sean Stone (Reece Shearsmith) possesses an uncanny knack for getting inside the minds of serial killers. His ability makes him a brilliant detective, but he's hindered by a personality disorder that rubs colleagues the wrong way. Following a workplace blunder, Stone is demoted from the homicide division to the Missing Persons Bureau, where he's forced to team up with his polar opposite: warm, empathetic analyst Ruth Hattersley (Alex Kingston).
The mismatched partners clash from the start, but Stone dives headfirst into the bureau's database to spot signs of serial killers behind some cases. Did the lonely teenage girl who posted on a suicide message board kill herself? Why did a lawyer and devoted family man disappear? To find them, Stone will have to harness the power of Hattersley's talents and reckon with his own personality flaws before they destroy his career.
Set One
Based on the world of Camilla Läckberg's novels, Erica Falck is a successful crime writer and mother of three. She's moved with her husband and children from the city to her hometown of Fjällbacka, a fishing village on a picturesque island off the coast of Sweden. Her return seems idyllic, but simmering beneath the village's surface lie hidden secrets, twisted desires and deceit waiting to erupt into the ultimate sin — murder.
THE SEA GIVES, THE SEA TAKES
When Erica finds photographer Stigge murdered in his studio, she can't help but take interest in the investigation. She learns that her mother-in-law, Kristina, was one among many in the neighborhood whom Stigge had blackmailed. With this news, Erica begins to dig even deeper into his past.
THE COAST RIDER
The coast guard finds two amateur divers dead after a storm and then discovers that two more are missing. Erica investigates something that could link all of the victims together: the divers had salvaged a shipwreck from the 1820s, where they found intact bottles of wine worth millions at auction.
THE QUEEN OF LIGHT
On a crystal clear, starry winter night a young woman dressed in a traditional Lucia gown is seen running across the ice. When she reaches an unfrozen channel, she drops her crown of candles in the snow and throws herself into the dark waters. As Erica investigates the case, she discovers the missing Lucia, a secret love affair and a man seeking revenge.
Set Two
THE HIDDEN CHILD
A few months after Erica's parents are killed in a violent car crash, a man arrives on her doorstep claiming to be her brother. Unconvinced, she asks him to leave. But when he's found murdered a few days later, she begins looking through her mother's things and discovers a long hidden secret that someone is very determined to keep secret.
THE EYES OF THE BEHOLDER
A well-to-do businessman is murdered and Erica's sister was the last person to see him alive. Things get even more complex when Anna confesses that she spent the night with him. As the questions multiply and grow, it's discovered that Anna's common-law husband knew of the affair.
FRIENDS FOR LIFE
When looking for the subject of her next book, her agent suggests basing it on an event from Erica's own life. Looking back to her teenage years, she recalls the disappearance of her classmate, Peter. As she begins digging into the past, she sets off a chain of events that brings the mystery closer to home.
