Matthew Holness stars as Knut Ångström, a brooding alcoholic maverick Swedish detective from the tough streets of Oslo, in a Scandinavian detective yarn adapted from the bestselling Ångström trilogy by Martin English (writing as Bjorgen Swedensson).
Following the death of his wife, Ångström is posted to the Njalsland peninsula where he becomes embroiled in a labyrinthine murder (or possibly not-murder) case which bears an eerie similarity to the Askeladden killings - a case from his distant past.
1) The Man Who Wasn't Dead
A body goes missing from a crime scene. But was it ever even there in the first place?
2) The Two Faces of Benny from ABBA
Detective Angstrom and Mina attempt to find out who tried to frame him for the death of Councillor Birgid Lundstrom, which leads them straight to the door of Benny from ABBA.
3) Into The Mad Mind of Madness
A clue left behind by the killer leads Angstrom and Mina to the Schmilsson novelty troll factory.
4) The Hunter Is The Hunted And The Hunter
The investigation takes Angstrom and Mina to the remote Celibate Puffin Island, where the pair find a possible connection between the Askeladden murders and the sinister Bolax Corporation, bringing them closer to finally discovering the identity of the mysterious Ash Lad.
