Description

The first six-part series in the nature of a road movie, with the main character of psychologist Nestor Bukowski, premiered in 2013. Second season switched more focus to Lieutenant Kuneš gained more space.[1]

The concept of the series reflects the dark style of modern Nordic crime fiction with a slower pace of action. The two parts of the series are primarily connected by the title character of the criminal investigator Lieutenant Kuneš,[2] who in the second series continues to work with the other main character, Nestor Bukowsky, when new facts emerged in the case of the murder of young Edita Tichá. Another accompanying criminal motif was added to this storyline from the first part of the series - arranged murders as unfortunate coincidences.

In 2013, author Jan Pachl expressed his intention to film a criminal spin-off called Rapl with the main character of the investigator Kuneš.[3] Czech Television produced and broadcast the new series in 2016.
