In the 13th novel in this internationally bestselling series, brilliant rogue police investigator Harry Hole is back, this time as an outsider assembling his own team to help find a serial killer.
Two young women are missing in Oslo. Strangers to each other, but last seen at the same party. When the body of one of them is found with fresh stitches along her hairline, the hunt is on to find a murderer with singular compulsions. Catching this criminal calls for a detective with a singular mind: Harry Hole.
But Harry is gone: fired from the police force and down and out in Los Angeles. It seems like nothing can entice him back home - until someone close to him comes under threat.
Now the clock is ticking, for Harry’s friend and for the missing woman. Can Harry cobble together a team good enough to help him catch an ingenious psychopath before the body count rises? The hunt will push him to the limit.
