Everything is peaceful in Tommerup, Denmark, until a young mother disappears in the middle of an idyllic summer day. There's no trace of the missing woman when Chief Superintendent Liam Stark and Superintendent Dea Torp are called to investigate. The small town is on edge, rumors begin to fly, and blame is cast on Charlotte's husband, who was the last to see her. When another person goes missing and Liam and Dea find a strange note linking the second missing person to the first crime, they suspect the disappearances may be the work of a serial killer. As the investigation continues, dark secrets about the victims from the past are revealed. Is someone targeting them because of this? As more people vanish, it's a race against time for Liam and Dea, who find themselves face-to-face with horrifying footage that reveals what is happening to the victims—and what will happen to future targets if they can't stop the killer. In this pulse-pounding thriller, Sara Blædel and Mads Peder Nordbo ratchet up the tension in a cat-and-mouse game where the killer is always one step ahead.

      Blaedel (the Louise Rick series) and Nordbo (the Matthew Cave series) team up for a macabre police procedural set in Nordbo’s native village of Tommerup, on the tight-knit Danish island of Funen. Affable police inspector Liam Stark and his brusque middle-aged sergeant, Dea Torp, face a possible missing person case when Claus, the coach of Liam’s son’s water polo team, demands police mount a search for his vanished wife Charlotte. An enigmatic quotation from the Quran found in Charlotte’s bag suggests the involvement of religious extremists, which irks police rookie Nassrin, who’s sick of watching fellow people of Arab descent on police surveillance screens. The stakes are raised when new victims start disappearing daily, with enigmatic Quran passages left among their belongings, and Stark and Torp discover horrific video footage depicting some of the crimes. Blaedel and Nordbo cast the net of plausible suspects ever wider, maintaining suspense and keeping readers on the edge of their seats as the plot barrels toward a properly nightmarish conclusion. This is a gruesome Scandi noir success. Agent: Judith Toth, Nordin Agency.
