A good crime series with excellent music, suitable camera work and a very good setup. The first half of the series really captivated me. Unfortunately, avoidable errors occur later: First of all, it is clear at an early stage that the wanted killer obviously has access to current investigations. In addition, he has high forensic skills as he can manipulate evidence and professionally sever limbs. So who could it be if not the personable forensic scientist?
When the two investigators try to figure out this secret as well, they always make the same mistake: They go into dangerous situations completely alone and without informing others. What can be exciting sometimes becomes tiring, because the series thrives on this pattern: Police officers make mistakes after mistakes. The annoying thing is: Without these numerous mistakes, which no one would make in reality, the story would be over soon. The Chestnut Man does not exist because of his genius, but because police officers do not adhere to protocol.
In this respect, the finale is almost a cliché of the entire series. The investigators try to face the killer alone five times and fail. I almost had to switch off.
Apart from these stupidities, it is a well-crafted work that is worth watching.
