One September morning, two cars collide head-to-head on a country road with little traffic. The collision is violent. Ten year old Cecilia is catapulted through the windshield and is dead before she hits the ground. Five years later, criminal detective Walter Gröhn gets a perplexing case on his desk a dead taxi driver and a killer who has no idea why he has committed the crime. The first murder is followed by more killings, all equally as brutal, and apparently inexplicable. Together with his talented assistant, Jonna de Brugge, from a special investigations unit within the National Police, Walter unravels threads that lead back in time and straight into the heart of the Swedish justice system. The truth they uncover is both unexpected and terrifying and when Walter is taken off the case, the situation gets out of control. He is soon forced to play game where both his own and Jonnas future are at stake. Thrilling, complex and intense. Swedish crime fiction at its best.
