Maria Kallio

It really was nearly impossible to work out who had done the murders. This is not because of the subtlety of the plots but because the answers came out of the blue as a flash of inspiration to the eponymous heroine's brain. Really, there were no clues at all to lead one to the miscreants. OK, I'm not fantastic at whodunits but I'd hope to guess correctly more than the one time I managed to in the penultimate episode.

I have to say that the personal lives and stories in the series weren't particularly convincing. Mario acquires a new fella just like that while frissons of tension (and more) are going on between her and her hunky partner Pekka.

Worth watching all the episodes but there wasn't a real urge to do so. It was more than a sense of duty but only a bit more.
