Blue Eyes

Just a few weeks before the general election Sarah Farzin, the chief of staff at the Justice Department disappears without a trace. The Minister of Justice, Gunnar Ljunghed, replaces her with his former protégé Elin Hammar. Elin soon discovers that someone is trying to cover up Sarah´s mysterious disappearance, important documents are missing and others are falsified. At the same time in the small town of Ludvika, Annika Nilsson, a local representative for the extreme right wing party, Trygghetspartiet, gets brutally murdered after holding a controversial speech in the town square.

The more Elin investigates Sarah´s disappearance the more she is convinced that something terrible has happened to her. Trygghetspartiet sees Annika´s murder as a golden opportunity to win new sympathies and votes. They assign their spokesman, Olle Nordlöf, to recruit Annika’s children, Sofia and Simon. Meanwhile, the Nazi terrorist cell Veritas surface from their obscureness and carries out the first atrocious terror attacks that will put the whole nation in fear.

Annika´s murder and Veritas terror attacks has put the government in a crisis - how will they handle the terror threats from Veritas? Olle reaches out to Sofia and Simon and offers to pay for their mother’s funeral, without revealing his political agenda. Elin discovers that Sarah´s application for leave is falsified and the trails lead back to the Department of Justice. Sofia is seeking comfort and scapegoats on the Internet and stumbles upon a xenophobic chat forum where Annika´s murder is blamed on the immigrants.

All of a sudden Elin gets a call that changes everything - a terrified Sarah wants to arrange a secret meeting. Janina confronts Olle and Kristoffer, a large amount is missing from the campaign funds. Olle lies and denies all knowledge of the missing money. In Ludvika Sofia spends more and more time on xenophobic online chat forums, revealing confidential information about Veritas terror attacks that Mattias told her in confidence. This does not go by unnoticed. Sofia has become a serious problem for Veritas.

Simon realizes that the move to Stockholm isn´t the fresh start Sofia promised. He gets irrevocably involved in Veritas against his will. Elin is chocked to discover that her friend Max is probably involved in Sarah´s disappearance. Veritas abduct the female director of a private healthcare company as she leaves home on her way to the office. A video showing the kidnapped healthcare director surrounded by Veritas is published on the Internet. In the same video Veritas proclaims themselves as Sweden’s frontline troops in the war to protect Swedish values.

The appalling execution of the health care director sends shockwaves over the whole nation. When Mattias and Sofia try to get rid of the body they are spotted by the secret police and the hunt after Mattias begins. Olle confesses to Janina that he actually did give Sofia money, and voices his concern that Sofia might have joined Veritas. Elin’s flat is broken into and searched. She suspects that the perpetrators were looking for a controversial uranium document now in her possession.
