A suspenseful Nordic noir where unresolved crimes refuse to stay buried
Detective and mother of two Veronika Gren is struggling to keep her life together. Trapped in a complicated family situation and hiding a growing pill addiction, her sense of control begins to slip when she is confronted by a young boy connected to an unresolved case. Certain she is losing her grip on reality, Veronika tries to ignore what she’s experiencing - but the encounter refuses to fade.
As more unresolved cases begin to surface, Veronika realises she is being drawn toward victims whose crimes were never solved. Following leads others have overlooked, she uncovers a pattern pointing back to her own past and a darkness she has long tried to suppress. What begins as a personal breakdown slowly transforms into an urgent investigation. When Veronika discovers that the crimes are not just echoes of the past but warnings of something about to happen, the stakes escalate dramatically. A killer is preparing to strike again - and this time, the threat is closer than she ever imagined.
Rooted in the atmospheric tradition of Nordic noir, Veronika is a psychologically driven crime series blending emotional depth with a distinctive investigative perspective. Anchored by a complex female lead, the series explores addiction, family, and the cost of pursuing truth when no one believes you.
