More about the book
The Killing redefines the police procedural genre by emphasizing the psychological aftermath of crime rather than just solving the mystery. Through its innovative storytelling and focus on the impact of violence on social and family dynamics, the show highlights changing gender dynamics in early 21st-century television. Author John Alberti explores how creator Veena Sud's vision of the "real cost" of murder positions the series as a significant feminist revision of the crime thriller, contributing to its critical acclaim and dedicated fanbase.
