Featured review
The Frozen Dead
This French series in set in the Pyrenees Mountains; and opens with a strange case involving the killing and decapitation of a valuable horse. Captain Martin Servaz is put in charge of the case. The only clue is a hair found on the horse's head. There is a DNA match. This only raises more questions than answers as it came from Julian Alois Hirtmann, a man who is an inmate at a secure psychiatric facility... a man who Martin sent there for murdering a number of women. In the facility a young, woman doctor is keen to work with Hirtmann. Inevitably it isn't long before the first human victim is found. As the death toll rises Martin, and his partner, Irène Ziegler, work to link the victims to each other and to Hirtmann.
I found this to be a solid and enjoyably mystery. Many questions are posed and these are gradually answered as the series progresses. As seems common in these relatively short French mystery series it is set in a fairly remote, scenic corner of the country; the fact that it takes place in winter adds to the atmosphere. There is a good sense of tension and a few fairly shocking scenes, especially towards the end. The actual finale is perhaps a little predictable and appears to set things up for a second season although it looks like that won't happen given that it is a few years since this was made. The cast does a solid job bringing their characters to life. Overall a solid story despite a few clichés, I'd recommend it to fans of French crime dramas.
These comments are based on watching the series in French with English subtitles.
