'Gripping, endearing, dark, and funny ... Highly recommended' Harlan Coben

‘Hancock writes with a razor-sharp pen, wittily and with originality. I simply adore her books’ KATRINE ENGBERG, bestselling author of The Tenant

A pulse-pounding Scandinavian noir about secrets, buried truths, and what happens when we go digging into the past

When Jan Frischof gives a shocking deathbed confession, journalist Heloise Kaldan suspects a hidden truth. Despite Jan’s warning of danger, Heloise delves deeper, uncovering links to decades-old disappearances that many want left in the past. With everyone lying to her, Heloise enlists the help of her friend Detective Inspector Erik Schäfer to unravel the mysteries of the past.
