Beck

A man working at a garbage incinerator discovers the body of a dead man burned to ashes in the oven. Police detective Martin Beck handles the case. All he knows is that a brutal murder has happened. But he does not know when or where. He has no body, motive or a crime scene, not a single trace. All he has is some teeth and a mysterious Internet address

Beck and his men investigates a murder of a Russian woman. At the same time as SÄPO (The Swedish Security Agency) sees a chance of getting a Russian in the embassy deported.

In this film Beck and his team are trying to find a serial killer, whose victims are spread all over Sweden. An obvious connection is that all the victims are women, and they were all in the same class, and Beck thinks that a scandal back in the past has something to do with the murders. But no one wants to talk about the past and it becomes a struggle to find the perpetrator before the final murder - only one woman is still alive.

Inspector Beck and his team get involved in a large-scale smuggling of cesium 133. A gang from the east uses refugees who with a promise to stay in Sweden and with danger to their own life take in the dangerous explosive chemical substance.

The Stockholm police bomb squad blows a briefcase to pieces after what looks like false alarm, but a baby was hidden inside, which is thus executed by shocked cops. As if the PR disaster weren't bad enough, the press gets wind of enough to cry cover-up. Soon after, young mother is targeted. Beck tries to link her to the baby by its biological father Ove Lundin, thus the prime suspect, but still lacks a motive for the sadistic MO, and the fiend 'Monster' isn't done.

Inconspicuous precinct officer Nordmark apparently shoots himself, but Beck, once his first partner, finds he led a secret life as lusty closet gay, the MO doesn't fit, nor does the suicide note - it was staged by someone who ignored his reading disorder. The commissioner wants all efforts to collaborate with the financial crimes unit to arrest tax-sinning crime king 'Money Man' Gavling, but Beck's team finds Normark must have been his precinct informer. The keys to the case are gay club bird Leonard, who recently dumped Nordmark, and Beck's first case, when Gavling still did his own dirty jobs. The gloves come off on both sides.

A serial killer that decapitates people is on the loose in the Stockholm subway. Martin Beck and his colleagues try to catch the killer, while the panic in the city increases.
