- The series is written by Mihkel Ulman, directed by Ain Prosa, and produced by Raivo Suviste.
Series overview
The founders of "Kättemaksukontor" are two women – former homicide detective Frida Arrak and former secretary Marion Pärn. Despite their contrasting personalities and worldviews, they are united by a common hatred for males, which leads them to the idea of offering revenge services to other women.
In season 6, they are joined by master thief Häidi Õigepaulus. When Frida decides to become a nun in season 10, her younger sister, physicist Freya Narvik, takes her place.
In season 11, Häidi leaves and is replaced by former police investigator Kirke Klein. After Kirke leaves at the end of season 13, former street kid Luna Haab joins the team. When Luna decides to become a survival instructor at the end of season 24, the young and inexperienced Lumi-Lee Aigo joins in season 25.
At the beginning of season 31, it is revealed that Freya and Marion have left "Kättemaksukontor". Lumi-Lee decides to close the office and start a new life with her partner Madis, but a series of incoming cases constantly postpone this decision. During one investigation, she crosses paths with lawyer Barbara Laando, whom she initially suspects of murder. Throughout the season, Lumi-Lee works with Barbara and Madis, solving various cases. In the final episode of the season, Barbara becomes an official member of the Revenge Office. After solving the last case, the trio decides to go on a trip together. When they leave the airport, Freya walks through the terminal door at the same time, unexpectedly returning to Estonia.
At the beginning of season 32, Freya returns to Estonia because her documents have expired. She soon discovers that Milana Luuve is also back in Estonia. When Freya, along with Barbara and Lumi-Lee, begins to investigate the case, it turns out that it is related to her husband Emil. After years of hiding, Emil has reappeared and is working for Milana, helping to create a prototype of a dangerous weapon. With Freya's help, Milana is finally caught and the case is solved. Freya and Emil are then offered to join a new lab team abroad, which they accept.
