Beck: Season 1

A man working at a garbage incinerator watches the body... More of a dead man burned to ashes in the oven. Police detective Martin Beck handles the case. All he knows is that a brutal murder has happened. But he does not know when or where. He has no body, motive or a crime scene, not a single trace. All he has is some teeth and a mysterious Internet adress.

Beck and his men investigate the murder of a Russian... More woman. At the same time, SÄPO (The Swedish Security Agency) sees a chance of getting a Russian in the embassy deported.

When the police uncover a narcotics smuggling operation, the driver... More is shot dead. The man turns out to be Superintendent Martin Beck's son. Beck breaks down and steps away from the investigation but later returns at his colleagues request.

Beck and his team are trying to find a serial... More killer whose victims are spread all over Sweden. An obvious connection is that all the victims are women, and they were all in the same class, and Beck thinks that a scandal back in the past has something to do with the murders. But no one wants to talk about the past and it becomes a struggle to find the perpetrator before the final murder - only one woman is still alive.
