Meanwhile, Thomas Buch, the newly appointed Minister of Justice, suspects that his predecessor was involved in the cover-up of a massacre of Afghan civilians by Danish soldiers and that this incident is connected with the murder. Lund suspects that the murder is not as straightforward as it seems, despite the forced confession of Dragsholm's husband. Inspector Ulrik Strange arrives at a port where Lund is working as a border guard, on the orders of her former boss, Brix, to ask her to return to help investigate the murder of Anne Dragsholm, a military adviser found murdered in Ryvangen Memorial Park. The Region 2 DVD with English subtitles was released on 19 December 2011. In the United Kingdom, it was shown on BBC Four, starting from 19 November 2011, following the success of the first series, on the Belgian channel, Canvas, starting on 25 November 2011, and in Australia on SBS Two, starting from 21 March 2012.

It was shown on German TV channel ZDF and on Swedish SVT in the autumn of 2010. Episodes were screened eleven days later on Thursdays on Norwegian NRK1. It aired in Denmark between 27 September and 29 November 2009. Pernille Birk Larsen: Ann Eleonora Jørgensenįorbrydelsen II is set two years later and consists of ten episodes.Chief Inspector Lennart Brix: Morten Suurballe (episodes 11–20).Chief Inspector Erik Buchard: Troels II Munk (episodes 1–11).Only Gråbøl was told that she was not the killer. The actors would receive the scripts only on an episode-by-episode basis just moments before shooting was scheduled to begin. As a result, she began "acting like a man" until the character took shape.ĭuring filming of the first series, Sveistrup also refused to reveal the identity of the murderer or even specific plot points to members of the cast, including Gråbøl. Gråbøl had a history of playing emotionally demonstrative characters on Danish television-she had worked with Sveistrup before on the TV-series Nikolaj og Julie-he approached her direct to play the part of Lund before work on the script began.ĭespite her insistence that she wanted to play an "isolated person unable to communicate" Gråbøl initially found it difficult to strike the right balance for the emotionally-distant Lund and then realised that the only people she knew, who were like the character, were men. Gråbøl, in particular, became eager to defend her character.

Let's Discuss:
The absolutely CREEPIEST, SCARIEST or downright most DISTURBING literature you've ever read...
I just finished The Chestnut Man by Søren Sveistrup and it was fine, but I need worse or more or scarier or whatever you want to call it. I need sitting up at 3 AM finishing it with a pit in my stomach, scared to put my feet on the floor and watching my back a little too much. Help me? (Full disclosure...I live and breathe horror/dark psychology, so the weirder the better).

The Chestnut Man
The Chestnut Man review #books #reading #TheChestnutMan #thriller #nordicthriller #SørenSveistrup
Title: The Chestnut Man
Author: Soren Sveistrup
Genre: thriller
My go-to Netflix shows are Nordic police procedural. I cannot get enough of these. They are so well-written, and the characters are so much better than in American police procedurals. They frequently feature female leads, which is awesome, and aren’t bogged down by tropes or an overwhelming amount of red herrings. So when I can…
