15 minutes into the first episode, I was starting to wonder if IMDB had misclassified this Nordic Noir series as a 'thriller'. Then it exploded into the page-turner I was hoping for. Political-Thriller is definitely an appropriate genre label for this very engaging series.

[Filmin] An excellent political thriller that tackles some momentous issues with great effectiveness: the West's ambiguous relationship with the jihadists, the search for peace by promoting war, or the political implications surrounding the award of the Nobel Peace Prize. That Obama's speech at the delivery of his controversial Nobel Prize opens each episode is significant. Smart, full of tension without the need for big action scenes, magnificent in form and content.
