The premise
Empathetic, meticulous and relentless - the only thing to escape Larvik detective William Wisting in his hunt for Norway's most notorious criminals is a happy family life. And when two mysterious deaths interrupt Wisting's Christmas, it is the beginning of a showdown with the deadliest killer of them all.
Horror Vault's take
Set against the bleak Norwegian winter, detective William Wisting is a man defined by his relentless pursuit of justice — a dedication that costs him dearly at home. When a pair of unexplained deaths surface during the Christmas season, Wisting finds himself drawn into the most dangerous investigation of his career. This Nordic noir series balances procedural precision with genuine psychological weight, making the hunt feel as much internal as external.
