Kungamordet - Season 1

Election night 2006 at the Social Democratic party headquarters. The election is lost, and the struggle for power over the party begins. When outgoing Prime Minister Viksten decides to remain as party leader the start of a game behind the scenes commences to replace him with Finance Minister Gert Jakobsson. While Jakobsson appears calm and in control in his profession, he shows a vastly different side of himself at home. His wife Linda standing there at the mercy of her husband and his manipulative powers and unpleasant expressions.

Intrigue thickens and Gert Jakobsson evolves into the natural choice for the post of party leader. Meanwhile his repression of his wife Linda reaches levels that are not acceptable for anyone. Matters get more complicated when the journalist from Dagbladet shows a growing interest in Linda.

Linda leaves Gert which enables him to focus his interest and attention on his new disciple, Yasemin. His flirtation is however not well received by the party leadership nor Yasemin family.

After the beating Yasemin disappears and her absence makes the rumors come to life. Gert and his colleagues are doing their best to mitigate the effects before the planned takeover but just when it is time for the last chess move Linda and Yasemine retaliate.
