Review of Veronika

Veronika (2024– )
8/10
Nordic Noir just gets darker...
5 March 2024
A new entry into the rapidly vast growing genre of Nordic Noir, this one set in a quaint Swedish village where a troubled police officer has visions of dead people who come to her for their unsolved murders! Sounds familiar, but Veronika has connections with the deceased, stemming from an early age when her father passed tragically, and how it all ties in with the current horrific murders.

A slow burner (really kicks in by end of episode 2) that is approached in a feature film style, allowing scenes to build and not relying on too much dialogue. Instead it shows the art in visual storytelling, piecing together the intricate puzzle, leaving a tiny trail of breadcrumbs, enough to keep one watching in unraveling the murder mystery that will hook you in to the very end.
