The Triangle
Now I have decided what my crime story in school will be about. Here is the basic synopis and its 5-6 pages long:
The Triangle
Because it sounds like a "Wallander" film
One cold Autumn day a Woman and her female friend walks in the red forest. They walk to a hill and then the scene swaps.
The ex-detective Christian Walbeck is sitting alone in his dark apartment. He rarely gets outside if it isnt for drinking or buying cigaretts. One day he had bought the newspaper, Kvällskuriren (The Evening Courier).
He reads an article about a woman called Sara Lindblom who is missing. Her boyfriend, Peter Holm, has been taken by the police and is already suspected for murder.
Christian Walbeck was once Saras boyfriend and they have a child together, Casper Lindblom. But Christian doesnt see Casper a lot due to his bad habits and Sara has not talked with him for months.
Mona Johansson works on Kvällskuriren. She happens to be the woman that was with Sara in the forest. She claims that a man ambushed them and that she managed to run away from the place.
Her career isnt going very well. When Kvällskuriren decides to not write a lot about Sara Lindblom, she gets frustrated as Sara happens to be her half-sister (same mother, different father) and they were together in the forest etc. Mona was also together with Christian for a while (The Triangle). Mona decides to write about it anyway and contacts Christian to ask if he wants to co-op.
Christian wants too, as he really cared about Sara. Christian and Mona goes to the interrogation of Peter Holm the next day (She pointed out Peter Holm as the potential murderer).
They dont get very far and they dont experience the whole interrogation as the Saras corpse has been found.
As a journalist, Mona (and Christian) are allowed to follow the police to the place where she was murdered.
Sara appears to have suffered a lot before she died (also her child went to the grandfather if you wonder). She was locked inside an old earth cellar (think the Dwarf dwelling in H3, they look like that...) and was starved to death.
Karl ("Kalleponken") Wefors leads the Police investigation.
Not much happens the next day. Christian and Mona go out on a "date" to discuss the murder (well, it kind of turns into a date). In the evening, Mona calls Karl Wefors. She claims that the murderer contacted her.
But when Karl arrives there its a trap. Mona "traps" Karl. She reveals some stuff. But soon Christian arrives, expecting to spend the night at her apartment. Mona tries to convince Christian something (like Karl is protecting the real murder or something). Bla bla bla Christian doesnt believe her and there is some fight scene (she has a gun).
In court she reveals everything. That she murdered her halfsister in the forest. Sara was always the perfect one and was always better then her. And Sara had once "stolen" Christian from her so she also wanted to prove her love. She admits that she was going to kill Karl in order to make a better story for Kvällskuriren.
At the burial of Sara, their grandfather comes forward.
He states that Mona suffered some split-personalty thing. She had it as a girl but he thought that it had faded away as her life became more stabile when she grew up.
But after Mona met Christian, and Christian met Sara instead - her life became more unstable and the split personalty thing that made her stronger on the inside grew.
The grandfather is afraid that the "split personalty gene" passes through the family.
In the final scene, Christians and Saras son Casper draws a drawing where he stands within a triangle with a head on each edge, hinting that as his mother died - his split personalty might evolve within his mind.
