8/10
Solid series

Warning: Spoilers
All six episodes are running on Netflix as a series: Annika Bengtzon, Crime Reporter. Annika Bengtzon is a crime reporter who is either at the right place at the right time or manages to work herself into the crimes she is reporting on. While not a detective, her reporting manages to solve the crimes she is investigating. Sort of a young Jessica Fletcher with baggage: two kids, a philandering boyfriend/husband, and rivals on the paper. The stories are well written, acted, and have high production vales but you need to read the subtitles as all dialogue is in Swedish. There are moments that stretch credulity at times as she places herself in risky situations without back up. Nobel's Last Will is, I believe, the first in the series so it makes for a good starting point. Always amazed her IPhone never seems to have a dead battery.
