A bestial serial killer is on the loose in Copenhagen. He has no weapon other than his phone, yet he can drive his victims to the brink of madness. His heinous crimes reunite Europol agent Mark Hess and Naiu Thulin, who has left the homicide unit to pursue a new career in cybercrime. The clues point to an unsolved murder, but the real answer lies deep in the past, when an innocent school trip turned into a nightmare... It seems the evil hasn't gone away - and the worst is yet to come.
"The plot is extremely sophisticated... No blind spots, as they say. Thrilling car chases, gruesome murders and inhuman pain await us. In this book, comfort is like a city miles away, where Little Bird rarely visits."
