Nice advert for the Irish Tourist Board.

The location is certainly very scenic. It was filmed in and around the small fishing town of Roundstone in County Galway, a place I've now added to my list, but a show has to be more than the scenery. The plot works up to a point, it's easy to see how the characters could have gotten involved in the situation they find themselves in, but there are too many stupid mistakes in the writing. Take for instance the scene where Björne retrieves a mobile phone that has been hidden in a dry stone wall, presumably for a long time. He turns it on, and it works. No need to recharge the battery. But were it the writing gets really bad is in the last episode. Firstly the Swedish detective has a mobile phone when she gets locked in the cold store. Secondly, a baby can't just be given to someone in somewhere like Ireland, the authorities would find out and take the baby away. It's a shame about the writing, because the acting was OK, as was the filming and editing.
