I'm one of those people who find it a bit difficult to get into a new series. I generally have to force myself to watch the second episode. However, not with this one. I wanted to know what would happen and how the terrible events would play out.

There was no way a couple of amateurs like these two would not be caught. What was more amazing was that it took so long. I guess the schedules needed six hour-long episodes though. I didn't mind at all. The good acting, back stories, settings and piling on of tension made for a compelling series.

Special mention for Ville Virtanen, whom I'd only seen in Finnish language programmes before. He brought all of his skills to play while portraying a man driven by events to commit the most terrible crimes.

This is a definite recommend.
