In the final season of The Killing, everything comes full circle and the past comes back to haunt Linden (Mireille Enos) who seemed to have finally escaped from the life of the homicide detective. Dragged back to the case that started her obsession, this is the one to make Linden question if her instincts were right, or was there a miscarriage of justice?

Moving away from politics, there is still a hint of police corruption in The Killing Season 3 pulling Linden back into being a homicide detective. When Ray Seward (Peter Sarsgaard) a murderer from her past is nearing his execution, Linde begins to question his guilt when bodies of young women are discovered bearing the same tell-tale marks of his victim. With Holder (Joel Kinnaman) by her side and James Skinner (Elias Koteas) her past partner investigating the murders, a whole new can of worms are opened up.

Linden (Mireille Enos) stares at the Seattle skyline from across the Sound in the first poster released to promote the fourth and final season of detective series “The Killing.” “The Past Can't Be Washed Away” is the season's tagline, referring to the emotional ending of season 3 wherein Linden killed her ex-partner and potential love interest James Skinner (Elias Koteas) after he revealed himself as the latest serial killer Linden and Holder (Joel Kinnaman) were tracking.

[Warning: Do not read if you have not watched The Killing season finale.] The Killing ended season three with the reveal of the Pied Piper and one bold move by Sarah Linden. After 12 episodes of twists and turns, the ruthless serial killer who targeted young teens living on the streets of Seattle was unmasked: Lieutenant James Skinner (Elias Koteas). For star Mireille Enos, the killer's reveal came in the days leading up to filming of the season closer. "I had my suspicions, but I didn’t know for sure until right before," she tells The Hollywood Reporter the

To me, The Killing has always been more about the journey (of Linden and Holder methodically working and charmingly vibing) than the destination (of solving the titular homicide).

Oh sure, executive producer Veena Sud & Co. tested us — and how! — by dragging out the “Who killed Rosie Larsen?” storyline for all of Seasons...

Perhaps it's past experiences or the general knowledge to recognize that most television shows are filled with twists, but watching The Killing Season 3 you can't help but try and guess the murderer at the same time you're wondering who the show will be trying to trick viewers into believing is the killer.

And yet, as the episodes continue, Linden and Holder's conclusions on which direction to take or which person to suspect and interview have felt logical.

Bringing Goldie in because of his connection to Bullet and the videos or Joe Mills because of his connection to the motel and the voice on the videos made perfect sense. But are they the grand finale killer that's being hunted?

Probably not. Even Holder admitted that in "Eminent Domain" with respects to Mills. They know something is not right with the guy, made more evident by the fact he's hooking up with...

Maybe we like to torture ourselves or maybe we want to see The Killing live up to its potential, but we’re back watching AMC’s methodical investigation series with lots of interest. Time has passed and Detective Holder (Joel Kinnaman) has a new partner and newfound success at his job, solving seven out of seven cases since the Rosie Larsen case. Holder’s former partner, Sarah Linden (Mirelle Enos) has been separated from society, working at Vashon, one of Seattle’s nearby islands as a ferry stop worker until Holder brings her back into the fold. Underneath all of the cosmetic changes, Season 3 has showed plenty of other reasons why The Killing has our attention again.

See what they did there? Instead of trying to circle around the death of one static crime scene, all of the possible leads,...

The Killing is back tonight at 8/7c on AMC with a few familiar faces appearing in the two-hour season premiere, "The Jungle"/"That You Fear The Most."

Aaron Douglas and Ryan Robbins will be recurring this season, and Ben Cotton will make an appearance in at least one episode.

Here is the setup, from Alan Sepinwall's review:

The new season picks up a little over a year after the last one concluded with the election, the arrest of Aunt Terry, and Mireille Enos' over-invested cop Sarah Linden walking away from Holder and the job. Holder is climbing the ladder at the Seattle Pd with the advice of new partner Carl Reddick (Gregg Henry) when he catches the murder of a teenage prostitute who was killed in a manner very similar to a case that Linden worked years before with her old partner James Skinner (Elias Koteas). Linden and Skinner arrested their victim's husband,...
