About the book

The discovery of two women's bodies in Oslo poses a problem with no simple answer. Unusual injuries suggest an unfamiliar murder weapon, and the investigation needs someone able to look beyond the first explanation. Harry Hole, however, lives in Hong Kong, far from his workplace and the country connected with his earlier experiences.

Detective Kaja Solness is tasked with bringing him back. The case thus becomes tied to Harry's state of mind: knowing he has the right skills is not enough; his reluctance must also be overcome. He enters the investigation carrying personal burdens and unwillingness to face again what he left behind.

Crime and personal limits intensify one another in the novel. Oslo is the starting point for a search that extends to Norway's mountains and Africa. Changing settings broaden the story's scale, but its core remains the attempt to understand unusual clues and a person capable of such violence.

Harry Hole's eighth case will appeal to readers interested in investigative judgment and the personal costs of police work. The hero's past remains part of his motivation.
