What's it like when you know you're going to die and you're waiting to dissolve? A crime novel with an ingenious plot is a must-read for all lovers of Scandinavian writers. Blaedel and Nordbo are so coordinated that they wrote a real crime hit.
It's summer and in Tommerup on the island of Fyn, everything exudes peace and idyll. Charlotte, a young mother of two small children, disappears without a trace on the short stretch between the gym where she did her morning training and the local elementary school where she works. When Charlotte's desperate husband turns up at Odense police later that day, Police Inspector Liam Stark and Police Commissioner Dea Torp receive a missing person report, but do not start a search because Charlotte has only been gone for a few hours. But when she still hasn't appeared the next morning, it soon becomes clear that it could be a crime.
In the following days, the case takes on such proportions that most of Fyn is involved, and people are hiding indoors for fear that they are next in line to disappear. Liam and Dea fight an intense battle against time, trapped in a game where people die painful deaths while the police can only watch helplessly.
