Netflix shares a first look and the debut date of the new series The Åre Murders, a series that takes place in the beautiful town of Åre in Sweden, known for its stunning landscapes.
The series is based on two books by Swedish author Viveca Sten, “Hidden in Snow” and “Hidden in the Shadows,” both from “The Åre Murders” series. Sten’s books have been published in more than 40 countries and have sold over 10 million copies.
“The Åre Murders means a lot to me and I’m very excited that it’s now time for the TV series to see the light of day on a leading streaming service like Netflix! Both as the author of the books and executive producer of the series, it’s hugely exciting to see the characters come to life through such talented actors. My dream, of course, is that the TV series will be just as popular and successful as the books have been both in Sweden and abroad, says Viveca Sten.”
The Åre Murders will launch globally on Netflix on February 6, 2025.
About The Åre Murders
Police officer Hanna Ahlander has been suspended from her job in Stockholm and dumped by her partner when she moves to her sister’s vacation home in Åre.

With a tough family situation and an understaffed police station, local police officer Daniel Lindskog reluctantly has to accept Hanna’s help. But the big question is whether they can trust each other.
