In Forbrydelsen, the context that Soren Sveistrup felt was central was the impact on Denmark of the recent financial crisis that was raging as he scripted the serial, a stressed social context in which, as he perceived it, people reacted by looking after number one.

This particular myth mobilizes our deepest anxieties and fears with many real-life examples, for example the disappearance and suspected murder of Madeleine McCann. In the McCann case, as one whose international media exposure has centered on the grief of the McCann parents, resounds in Forbydelsen I through its focus on the impacts of this tragic turn on Nanna’s parents, Theis and Pernille. Forbrydelsen’s close tracking of the shock, grief, and outrage suffered by this couple is crucial to the emotional veracity of the first season, as evident in two indicative scenes.

Plot
In the first series, D.I. Viv Deering is dynamic but blunt in leading a team of detectives at the fictional 'Manchester Metropolitan Police'. D.C. Dinah Kowalska misses out on a promotion to D.S. due to a mistake, but she proceeds to uncover a link between a murder, the body of a drowned woman, and the disappearance of a third girl. The team soon realise someone is killing girls with Down syndrome across Manchester, and, while negotiating different cases, they attempt to solve the case as more girls come into danger. The prime suspect is killed whilst fleeing arrest, but Dinah and Viv separately conclude that Viv's husband was also involved. Viv burns the evidence and plans to kill rather than arrest him, but he is killed by Cathy whilst she and Dinah are holding him at Viv's home. With Viv they cover up their involvement before reporting the killing.[10]
