Horrible Events Come Home to Roost

This plot reminds me just a bit of Sherlock Holmes "The Sign of Four." Some horrible thing that happened in a military setting creates a rash of murders. Some of the victims are innocent; some are not. Wallander must sort out a rather sophisticated plot by three men. Not only are they killing people, they are subjecting them to torture and mutilation. They only heart they show is releasing a little girl after killing both her parents. Kurt and Linda are immersed in the ugliness of all this. For Kurt, he deals constantly with the idea that once one becomes a policeman, on can never go home again. Linda has his same personality. There is a subplot with LInda moving in with Stefan. What started as a rental agreement is turned into an intense affair. At least for one evening, they act on feelings they have had all along. This will be interesting. This is by far the most satisfying of the episodes.
