Based on bestselling Swedish author Håkan Nesser’s book trilogy of the same name, Intrigo: Agnes is an intense thriller about good friends and evil deeds. With the death of her husband, Agnes is desperate for money. Then she runs into her old friend Henny (Gemma Chan, Captain Marvel), who is enraged at her unfaithful spouse, Peter (Jamie Sives, “Chernobyl”). Henny makes Agnes a shocking offer—enough cash to live a better life, if she will murder Peter—leading to an explosive, unforgettable climax.
