To mark the season two release of Nordic Noir series Van Veeteren on DVD on 25.11.13, the lovely people from Arrow Films have given us copy of the murky crime thriller to give away.
Set in the fictitious city of Maardam, in a made-up country that could be anywhere in northern Europe, the series follows the murder cases of retired chief inspector, Van Veeteren, and his two crime squad protégés, Münster and Moreno.
The series starts with Van Veeteren going into retirement. He has bought an antiquarian bookshop where he plans to live out his remaining years devoting himself to his other great passion, books, and trying to spend more time with his family – especially his estranged son Erich, whose history of crime and drug abuse are at least in part a result of Van Veeteren’s deep commitment to his work.
His retirement, however, is in name only, as Münster and Moreno continue to consult the master detective, who helps them with new perspectives in their investigations and invariable ends up getting actively involved himself. And one senses he would not have it any other way.
