- Did you live there long? - Four, five years.
I have a rather transient life, you might say.
I have a pretty quiet life.
That's what I want to try here more or less.
My peaceful life?
Sometimes I actually crave to find peace and security.
Everybody's different.
Glad you came strolling along.
I often do that. Jussi thinks it's nice.
Right, Jussi?
Now I'll go home to my quiet, monotonous life again.
Thank you for the wine. - You're welcome.
It's weird. Wait, you must do it like...
So.
THE BETRAYAL
- Have you decided? Yes, I have an order, but...
I called, but no one knows where my mother is, it doesn't make sense.
We cannot consider an adult missing so soon
We usually talk several times a day, I just know something happened.
If she's still missing tomorrow, we'll look - Then you must need a picture.
- Here. - We'll do it tomorrow, it'll be okay.
This is of course absolute hell.
LK...
- You're all just... - Has your car been stolen?
Stop moving back and forth. - Wait a minute...
- LB... - No, GDE 727.
- GDE... - My license number.
- Was it stolen? - Who the hell steals from a cop?
You drove your own car. - Was it stolen at your house?
- No, by the parking lot at Sandskogens. - What were you doing there?
Jussi likes to run there.
- Mom is gone. - What do you mean gone?
She does not answer when I call, it's not like her.
- Your dad might know where she is. - I do not want to talk to him.
- Have you met someone else? - What?!
What are you talking about? No, of course not.
I love you.

Hey! Come here!
There's something there. Do you see?
Is it a man or what is that?
The killer entered through here.
Strange enough, it seems the external alarm was turned off at the time.
This was where the murder took place.
The body lay there, the offender rolled the body over some plastic.
Then someone took its time cleaning everything with bleach.
There was a guy here last week who was working on something.
- What did he look like? - Stout... Really stout.
Damn long hair, was in his 20s.
Cell phone can be Julia's or, if we're lucky, the perpetrator's.
The body was dragged here and covered carefully.
Julia has been dead for at least 12 hours.
A neighbor saw a guy working here last week.
Check the phone records for all calls Julia made.
- She was married to Erik Wredin. - Have we heard from him?
Not a word, but her daughter wanted to make an inquiry this morning.
- Can you interview her Kurt? - Yes.
- Hello, Eva. - Kurt!
- Do you work in this department? - Yes.
- How is she? - She has been sedated.
- You will have to wait a few hours. - Has anyone visited?
You know I cannot say.
Call as soon as she wakes up. You can call anytime.
Bye.
Here is the list of all numbers Julia phoned last week.
The craftsman the neighbor saw, is him there?
- No. - And the rest?
She called her daughter Amanda 14 times
and Oscar Strömberg 3 times.
- He's Amanda's boyfriend. - And then she called her husband once.
Check Facebook, emails and transactions on her bank account.
The guy who worked in the house must be identified and questioned.
Erik or Amanda must know who he is.

I did not react to anything in the call, we had decided to take a break.
It is not unusual after 19 years.
- Was it due to Linn Hedman? - No.
- When did you talk to Amanda last? - What's the matter?
We have a bad relation and rarely see each other.
Wait... Can you describe the guy? I might know who he is.
Normal height, stout, long-haired...
No.
The blood comes from Julia Wredin. She died from a stab to the heart.
Probably a knife. Stabbed with great force.
It came suddenly, no defensive wounds.
- Julia knew the offender? - Yes, or she was surprised.

I met Julia in my office the same night she was murdered.
We argued, she was jealous.
- Then she took off and I stayed behind. - Was it you who killed Julia?
Julia left my office at half past eight.
I arrived at Linn's at half past eleven, in between, I have no alibi.
Is there something that ties me to the murder scene?
Do you have anything at all?
- You asked Linn to give you a false alibi. - I was scared.
I was afraid to appear in the press-
and damage my reputation if I became a suspect.
You asked Julia to sign a prenuptial agreement.
The day before Julia died, I told my attorney that Julia would get half.
She would get half of everything, including my company.
- Where have you been? - At a hotel.
Why were you away if you are innocent?
- That's my business. - No, not on the night of the murder.
I have told you everything I know-
-if we are going to continue I want to have my lawyer here.
Otherwise, I would go. Now.
- Why didn't you call? - Should I?
- Don't you read the papers? - No.
- I just check independent news. - Independent news?
With no commercial interest behind. That you should do.
- What did you do at Julia's? - Fixed kitchen fitments, drains...
Man of the house didn't get his thumb out of his ass.
- Do you know him? - No.
- Erik Wredin. - No, as I said.
Do you know what I find strange? We found no fingerprints from you.
- Is that weird? - Someone has cleaned thoroughly after himself.
Julia ran after me with a cloth, she does not like dumb "ordinary people".
Are you joking about someone who was murdered?
I've been detained on extremely vague grounds.
- I am convinced that you are lying. - I don't care!
- What'd you get for the job? - Now this is getting boring.
I bought a Coke from the Turk at the corner at half past nine, so check with him.
Call my neighbor Torsten Wiik also, he sees everything and everyone.
He's also an old policeman, maybe you'll trust him?

But this is not possible. I'm really sorry.
You can not stay here.

Your mother? Early retired with mental health problems.

Unless you cooperate I'll take her in for questioning.
Do you want to expose her to that?
That last day Julia had been drinking.
She thanked me and said, that she was safe because I was there.
I asked if she was afraid of anything and she replied-
-that her husband had threatened to cut her throat.
- We want to keep your cell phone. - You may not.
There's a prosecution order on it.
Okay, then you can go.
So.
Hi. Do you have time to talk?
- About what? - About Julia.
I thought you were a teetotaler. Are you celebrating something special?
What do you want?
According to a witness who talked with Julia we learned that you said-
-that you would cut her throat.
No.
- Why would she said that? - No idea.
Reason was not Julia's strong suit.
She wanted to be in control.
If she couldn't, she would tore down the world around her.
Your world too?
- Are we done now? - He mentioned you.
- Who? - You know who I mean.
You had no contact with Amanda, but you went to the hospital-
And drilled her about that workman.
He has started to talk.
35 years experience as a detective tells me we'll know everything next morning.
- It does not matter what they say. - They?
Where there two?
Fuck you.
Julia did not deserve to live.
She took from me the one thing I loved.
I hated her from the moment Amanda was born.
For 19 years, she turned my daughter against me.
I stabbed her, I stabbed her in the heart.
One stab-
One stab...
- Really!? - Yes.
- What did he said then? - Erik has confessed.
He's talking about "they", so Tore wasn't alone.
It is important that we find this other guy he's talking about.
- Can you fix it? - Absolutely, I'll do it now.
Try. Goodbye.
Hi. Good day, Linda.
- I want to talk to Tore. - You've done that.
- He didn't do anything. - I just want to talk.
- Maybe he can help us. - Tore is not home.
Does... Tore spend much time with his friends...
No, he's not with some friend.
Yes, but I've heard that he has one he socialize much with.
- No... - Nobody?
No, okay.
- He is with his girlfriend. - Do you know where I can get a hold of her?
No, she has no home. Sometimes she's here and sleeps and all that.
Okay, thank you.
I stood in the doorway when she turned around.
I stabbed with the knife into her chest and she collapsed on the floor
She looked at me...
... and then she died.
Then I rolled her in plastic and dragged her out.
- What did you do next? - Then it's just black.
I do not remember anything.
- What did you do with the murder weapon? - I do not remember anything.
He explained step by step how he went about things.
Erik describes details that only the killer could know.
I have spoken with the prosecutor and she wants to prosecute.
It's damn annoying that Linda did not find Tore's buddy.
- Hi. How's it going? - Hey.
I checked Tore's mobile, but there was no direct proof-
-but two apps to disable gps-related intrusion detection.
And an app for receiving images from surveillance cameras.
Cameras? How does he explain that?
We have not been able to get hold of him.
What are you doing here? Will you just let me be?
- Look me in the eye and tell me. - Stop it.
- Can you look me in the eye? - I want you to go.

- The memory might come back. - Yes...
You, those apps for security cameras...

and the murder was filmed and Erik saw the movie...
Why does he remember all the details, but nothing afterwards.

- He hated her for it. - Was that why he stabbed Julia to death?
Erik stabbed Julia to death? How can you tell?
I saw her there on the beach...
You only saw the face, the rest of the body was hidden.

- Can I use your toilet? - Yeah, sure.
