The Killing — Season 2
Life hasn’t been kind to Carl Mørck. Following the fallout from the Larsen case, he finds himself reassigned – demoted, really – to the quiet coastal town of Gedser, processing passports instead of pursuing complex investigations. But his exile is short-lived when Ulrik Strange, a detective from Copenhagen, arrives with a request from their former boss, Lennart Brix. A shocking murder has occurred: Anne Dragsholm, a military legal advisor, was found dead at the Ryvangen Memorial Park, tragically staged near a replica execution post echoing Denmark’s wartime occupation. Initially reluctant to return to the fray, Lund is drawn into the case as she uncovers unsettling layers beneath the surface – complexities that challenge the seemingly clear-cut narrative and even cast doubt on the forced confession of Dragsholm's husband. Simultaneously, Justice Minister Thomas Buch begins his own investigation, suspecting a dark connection between his predecessor’s past actions and the brutal murder, specifically regarding a potential cover-up surrounding a massacre involving Danish soldiers in Afghanistan. The threads are tangled, and Lund must navigate them carefully to uncover the truth.
