    Storyline

    Edit
    Drug-running biker Erik Strah is found on a beach, his neck broken and the drugs gone - to the fury of vicious drugs baron Jovan Brankovic who runs the racket under cover of the Bloodhounds, the Ystad motor cyclists' group. Another member,Hans Kolt, gets a visit from officers Svartman and Isabelle about suspected dog fights. Svartman is attacked by a dog and Isabelle is later confronted in her flat by a masked man warning her from giving evidence. She wants to quit the force but Public Prosecutor Katarina gets Wallander to persuade her to stay. Looking for his senile old mother,who has gone walkabout from her care home, pathologist Nyberg accidentally stumbles on a disused church where the drugs gang meets. When another young biker, Johannes, is intimidated into taking over from Erik,Wallander and his team are in a position to follow him, raid the church and catch the villains. —don @ minifie-1

    Bikers Running Guns
    This episode involves the connection among a group of motorcycle guys, most of whom are legitimate, and a foreign drug runner. It has to do with Wallander and his growth, even at age sixty, toward a true understanding of the people who work with him. While on a drug run, a young man dies when his bike goes over a cliff. It turns out that his neck had been broken before he actually hit the bottom. There is a scene where the young new woman cop is attacked in her apartment and threatened. It's all about trying to get to the big fish. There is a terrifying scene where on young guy is put in a pit and wet concrete is dumped on him and his pregnant girlfriend are threatened in order to get him to do the will of the drug lords. Solid episode.
