Wallander Season 4, A Lesson in Love Episode 2, aired 5/29/2016

      The body of a woman is discovered in the forest.  Afterwards it is learned that the victim's daughter is missing.  Wallander must act fast before he has another dead body on his conscience.  As the investigation unravels, Wallander senses he is being followed.  Kurt is attacked by a group of motorcycle bikers and he wonders if they are involved in the murder and the disappearance? 

     Kurt is haunted by his father's decline and death from Alzheimer’s.  He is always aware of the cruel disease that ravaged his father's mind.  Their relationship was a tortured one even before his father’s illness.  He never approved of Wallander's choice to join the police force.  But, they were more alike than Wallander would have liked to think.  His father was a successful artist and he painted the same bleak landscape over and over again.  Both men are powerless in the face of their obsessions and they fought a losing battle against their natures.  Kurt is starting to notice subtle signs that he may also have Alzheimer’s.  This is a difficult dilemma to face!!  5* (I really liked this season.
