We're enjoying it. You do have to concentrate but I love it when a discovered photograph links all the victims. Helps me keep track of who's who.

We have watched the first two episodes and must admit we are struggling to follow. If it gets better though we will persevere.

Talking about Scandi authors I love the Viveca Sten Sandhamn Murders series about a Swedish detective Thomas and his friend Nora, solving crimes on the little islands within the outer Stockholm archipelago.
The films of the books are now available on Amazon Prime too, subtitles obviously, and are well worth a watch even if only for the beautiful scenery and houses.

I’m enjoying it so far- you do have to concentrate because of subtitles but I like the fact that the main characters have difficulties in their personal lives. I read a lot of Scandi noir- local library has lots of authors including some Icelandic.

Yes. I think you need to concentrate on this one but I'm enjoying it and haven't found it to be disjointed.

I've watched 4 episodes now and I'm really liking it. Didn't find it disjointed but as with most subtitled programs I find I have to concentrate more to keep track of what's going on.

Glad it's not just me then, sodapop. I am mainly watching it because I had a fabulous holiday in Iceland years ago and wanted to see more of the scenery but it seems to me that characters suddenly appear without any context.

No I did as well Sparklefizz haven't watched the second episodes yet, it didn't really grip me.

Anyone else watching this and finding it a bit disjointed (or is it just me)?
