Flemming Borck is the ideal bank teller: quiet, meticulous, perhaps a little dull. He even stays late to tidy up, which is how he finds the note: THE THING IN MY POCKET IS A REVOLVER. HAND OVER THE CASH YOU'VE GOT IMMEDIATELY.
This draft of a stick-up, discarded at the counter, is Borck's warning that the Father Christmas outside the shopping centre is not all that he seems. So Borck hatches a plan. But he soon finds out that being quiet and meticulous won't save him from the messy and dangerous situation he's got himself into...
Anders Bodelsen (Author)
Anders Bodelsen (1937-2021) was a writer associated with the 1960s neo-realist wave in Denmark. He was especially well known for his thrillers – works of astonishing psychological veracity – which won him several Danish awards including the Golden Laurels and the Critics’ Award, as well as France’s Grand Prix de Littérature Policière and Sweden’s prestigious Martin Beck Award for Best Crime Novel.
