More DescriptionOn a frosty January day in Bergen, Private Detective Varg Veum is visited by a prostitute. Her friend Margrethe has disappeared and hasn't been seen for days. Before her disappearance, something had unsettled her: she'd turned away a costumer and returned to the neighbourhood in terror. He soon finds the first body - and it won't be the last, either. His investigation leads him into a subculture in which corrupted idealism has had fatal consequences. Dark secrets lurk under every rock he picks up. Ultimately the pattern of wounded people, worm-eaten lives, and hearts long since grown cold proves deadly - for someone.
