A riveting crime novel from the internationally bestselling authors of The Hanging and The Girl in the Ice--the fifth book in the Konrad Simonsen series.
Sixteen children and four adults are killed in a devastating boat crash in Copenhagen. Detective Chief Superintendent Konrad Simonsen is called in, only to discover that this was no accident and that one of the passengers has a very personal connection to the homicide team.
Reeling from this revelation and not knowing who to trust, Simonsen follows a trail that eventually leads him to Bosnia and a network of criminal misconduct. All evidence points towards one shady figure: a high-ranking army specialist with a suspicious past. But the more Simonsen digs, the further the truth slips from his grasp.

"Harrowing . . . [a] tour de force . . . This masterly indictment of bureaucratic ineptitude, mismanagement, and corruption is a must-read." - Publishers Weekly, starred review
"Combines the fascinations of a police investigation with the suspense of a courtroom novel and the intrigue of a spy thriller. This satisfying book fulfills its ambitious mandate on every level." - The Wall Street Journal
