Plot

Season 1 – In August 1990, the sadistic murder of a pregnant woman is committed on the island of Nordkoster, western Sweden. The victim is buried alive in the sand, so that the rising tide slowly drowns her. In June 2015, the murder, known as the Beach Case (Swedish: Strandfallet) remains unsolved. Olivia Rönning, a trainee at the Stockholm Police Academy, is assigned the cold case for a summer project. Upon discovering that her late father worked on the original case, Olivia becomes obsessed with solving the murder. She searches for the lead investigator Tom Stilton, who has since become homeless and does not want to be reminded of his old life. Horrifying videos show up on the Internet in which other homeless people are brutally attacked including a friend of Tom's. Eventually Tom helps Olivia to investigate the murder. Along the way they are helped by Tom's former colleague, Mette Olsäter and their mutual friend Abbas el Fassi. They are thwarted by Rune Forss, a corrupt policeman and by Jackie Berglund, a former prostitute, madame and current store owner.

Season 2 – In late 2017 Olivia's near neighbour, Bengt Sahlman, is found hanging in his home by his teenage daughter, Sandra. He was a Customs officer. Meanwhile in Marseilles, Samira Khalil's dismembered body is discarded at the shoreline. She was a blind actress and former circus performer. Abbas loved Samira but she was then-married and so he left the city. Olivia has completed her final year at the academy but not yet chosen a posting. She decides to unofficially investigate Bengt's death, while Tom and Abbas go to Marseilles to find out about Samira. Mette and her team believe Bengt's death is related to missing drugs at Customs. Samira's murder leads to the local underworld of prostitution and porn films. First Tom then Abbas return to Stockholm leaving local police to look for the murder suspect, Alain Bressant. In Stockholm Olivia teams with TV investigative journalist, Alex Popov. They pursue Jean Borrel, the owner of Albion, which recommended a dangerous medicine to aged care homes, leading to deaths that were covered up; including that of Bengt's father. Eventually both Bengt's and Samira's murders are linked by evidence found on a laptop.
