The series is based on Carolina Neurath’s series of books about journalist Bea Farkas. The second season  is produced by Jan Marnell/FLX for C More and TV4. 

The first season was based on Carolina Neurath’s book of the same name, and premiered during the Fall of 2019, with a fantastic reception from both viewers and critics.

In season two, Bea Farkas experiences success with her newly published book and travels to Malta to investigate a loan company on behalf of the newspaper Dagbladet. There she meets Peder Rooth, who has served his prison sentence and now provides the same loan company with illegal personal data. This season is based on Carolina Neurath’s follow-up novel, “Gränslösa.”
