The course features a resplendent mock Moorish clubhouse and is laid out around Lake Kadijah, named after Mohammed's wife.

The foils are provided by Kollberg (Sven Wollter) and Larsson (Thomas Hellberg), two handsome young cops who cordially and sarcastically detest each other, but who manage to wrap up the case in the end. One is wealthy and arrogant, the other working-class, bright...
