From BBC Radio 4:
Four new cases land on the desk of Detective Annika Strandhed, queen of the Oslo Police boat patrol.
Annika's neuroses - and she has a few - are mostly hidden by a boisterous manner and a love of speedboats. As fictional Scandinavian detectives go, she's not as astute as Saga Norén or Sarah Lund, but may be better company.
Although Mikel, her long-suffering forensic photographer, might disagree.
Episode 1: False Signals
The Asker Accident - a plane disaster in 1972 - seems to have a bearing on a murder inquiry when a body is found near the crash site.
Episode 2: Forty Words
Annika and Mikel travel to Bergen to investigate a strange case involving a submarine
Episode 3: Traffic
Annika wakes up after some serious partying on Midsummer's Eve to find herself in the boot of a car.
Episode 4: Vertigo
Annika's holiday is interrupted when she sees someone pushed from the top of a rock face.
Nick Walker is the author of two critically-acclaimed novels, Blackbox and Helloland.
