I might need to see this series. Just saying.

Lars is put in charge of the investigation. He is partnered with a first-day cop, Alfhildr Enginnsdottir, a Viking-era "farmer's wife" from the 11th century. She is the first police officer with a "multi-temporal background", but is shunned as a Public Relations stunt and "B4 mascot." She uses moss for sanitary napkins.
That is just about perfect. In.
It's on HBO and I actually caught it. I thought it was pretty good. A novel concept. I liked the "temporal" ghettos. And I loved the "Trans-temporals." People who were born in the 20th and 21st century but "felt" like they should have come from another time. Then there was the rich caveman. Some ol gal married him and wrote a bestseller called, "The Caveman's Wife."
There was just a lot of clever stuff that backhandedly poked fun at modern progressive society.
ETA: And how could I forget Cro Magnon Security. A security company that uses cavemen as guards.

And in the first episode, where Alfhildr is, for the first half, this confused PR mascot, the second half sees her dishing out proper violence shield maiden style.
It's part of HBO Europe set of shows and if one had DirectV, it can be downloaded after putting the name of the show in the 'Search' part of the menu. Another show HBO Europe has is The Pact; it's a complex, darker piece dealing with corruption in Poland. We aren't done with it, but it's been interesting so far.
Anyway, Beforeigners is fun and worth a look.
