Synopsis
editSeason one
In 2017, detective inspector Peter Wendel returns to work after three years on sick leave. He still believes his older brother Urban was murdered five years before, while everyone else agrees that Urban committed suicide. Ulla appoints Peter as head of a cold case unit and assigns various misfits: Caijsa, who is being investigated by Internal Affairs after being accused of stealing; her accuser, Jorma, who is retraining as a real estate agent; and Barbro, who has no field experience. Ulla's assignment for Peter is to re-investigate murders by a confessed serial killer, Klas. His defence lawyer, Roland, is found murdered by Peter's knife, with a note attached claiming that Klas had lied. Peter's investigations stir problems for Björn, who had been attorney general and verified the convictions. Also annoyed by the reopened cases are Temo, the original investigating detective; Lena, Klas's psychotherapist; and Stefan, the prosecuting attorney. Peter's ex-wife, Ann-Marie, works for Björn, but her rival Marcus undermines her credibility. Peter suspects Mikael of killing Roland and putting the blame on a pedophile, Lars-Åke, who actually murdered one of Klas's victims. Peter loses credibility when his mental illness, whilst grieving for Urban, is revealed.
Season two
Set six months after the first season, Urban's colleague Conny confides to Peter that he was right about Urban's murder. Before Peter can learn more, Conny is shot dead. Meanwhile, Peter observes Ludvig steal evidence from Conny's flat. Ulla relocates Peter's unit to a dingy room. His team has further setbacks as Caijsa's pregnancy nears term and Jorma leaves to sell properties. They learn that Ludvig frequented underage prostitutes and was being blackmailed by Conny.

Production
editCriminologist and writer Leif G. W. Persson provided the ideas for the show on "a couple of pages", which Hans Jörnlind and Aron Levander used to create The Truth Will Out.[6][7] The action is set in Stockholm and rural Sweden with Jörnlind and Levander co-writing scripts.[1][3][6] The storyline is influenced by the re-investigation of Sture Bergwall (a.k.a. Thomas Quick)'s murder convictions.[6] Jörnlind has reflected that Bergwall's case was used as a backdrop, while the series focuses on "what happens when the justice system fails".[6] According to Jörnlind, cold-case units comprising misfits were common when they were first formed in Sweden.[6] The first season was produced by Søren Stærmose, with a budget of €6.8 million for eight episodes.[7] Endemol Shine North America were working on an American adaptation in July 2020.[8]
Reception
editThe Guardian's Ellen E. Jones reviewed The Truth Will Out in March 2020 and compared it favorably with Nordic noir forerunners The Killing (2007), Borgen (2010), and The Bridge (2011),[3] adding that the architecture "conforms to genre expectations", displaying "cool uncluttered premises of flustered suspects".[3] Debit Enker of The Age describes Gustafsson's character (Peter) as "psychologically fragile", with behavior shifting from "impassive to aggressive", and his team as "off-beat... department discards".[9]
Martin Howse of Entertainment Focus previewed season two: "a superb crime drama, brilliantly acted and creatively written. There are some welcome comic moments, too, which nicely counteract the solemnity. The Scandinavians do this sort of dark police procedural very well, and this is another top example."[10]
