She has plans to move to Sweden with her teenage son and fiancé.
As in the American version, Sarah is the protagonist, her life in transition as she ends her job with the police force in Copenhagen. The Scandinavian cast features Sofie Gråbøl ( The House That Jack Built) and Søren Malling ( The Investigation) as the detectives Sarah and Jan Ann Eleonora Jørgensen ( Italian for Beginners) and Bjarne Henriksen ( The Hunt, The Celebration) as the parents of the murder victim and Lars Mikkelsen ( Headhunter, and yes, brother to Mads Mikkelsen) as Troels Hartmann, the charismatic mayoral candidate.
It’s every bit as compelling as its American protégé. Previously unavailable to American audiences, Topic is now streaming the original Danish version (created by Søren Sveistrup).

The multiple-Emmy-winning series, developed and produced by Veena Sud, was based closely on the Danish series The Killing ( Forbrydelsen), which premiered in 2007 and ran for one season (18 episodes). Brent Sexton and Michelle Forbes were cast as the victim’s parents. The excellent cast also featured Billy Campbell, who played an ambitious candidate for mayor who became enmeshed in a scandal connected to the murder. Over subsequent seasons the two partners, each with troubled personal lives, grew closer. Starring Mireille Enos ( Hanna) and Joel Kinnaman ( In Treatment) as detectives Sarah Linden and Stephen Holder, the first season focused on a suspenseful investigation sparked by the murder of a teenage girl.

This is the Danish series that may well have inspired a juggernaut of provocative stories generated by life in these cold, civilized, but often dark Scandinavian lands.
