Forhøret: detective refuses to believe daughter's death was suicide

Forhøret is a gripping Danish crime and mystery series that premiered on Viaplay in November 2019. The series follows Bjørn Rasmussen, a police investigator who refuses to accept the official ruling that his daughter's death was suicide. Determined to find the truth, he launches his own investigation, conducting intense interrogations of suspects and systematically tearing apart the convenient lies surrounding her death.

Across three seasons and 24 episodes, the series explores the psychological toll that arises when personal tragedy collides with professional duty. As Rasmussen digs deeper, he uncovers increasingly uncomfortable truths that challenge everything he thought he knew about his daughter and those closest to him. The series' strength lies in its in-depth examination of grief, justice, and how far a father will go to get answers.

The series ran from November 2019 to February 2023, with each season consisting of eight episodes. Forhøret stands out in the Nordic noir landscape with its tightly focused narrative and character-driven approach to the crime genre, making it a must-watch for fans of psychological dramas and Scandinavian crime fiction.
