New turns of the investigation tell the police inspector and his partner Cafe Iqbal that the truth lies deep in the past. In search of the culprit, Beyer and his partner will plunge into the most monstrous moments of history. And the search for the disappeared girl turns into a hunt for a tough killer and reveals a secret that some hoped to bury in the darkness. Abstract Ingar Jonsrud’s debut novel became the # 1 bestseller in Norway. This masterfully written thriller, which opens the trilogy about Fredrik Beyer, pushes the boundaries of the genre, taking Scandinavian noir to a whole new level. Annette Vetre, daughter of an influential Norwegian politician, is gone. Chief Inspector of Police Fredrik Beyer gets down to business without much zeal — after all, the clue seems obvious. The girl was a member of a religious community, and her disappearance is probably somehow connected with the activities of the sect. However, the brutal murder of adherents of the teachings, to which Annette belonged, committed in the suburbs of Oslo, makes Beyer think that the matter is much more complicated than it seems at first glance. When the police find a laboratory at the crime scene, in which, apparently, horrific experiments were carried out on people, Fredrik Beyer and Kafa Iqbal no longer doubt that the real motives of all crimes lie in the past. But to find the culprit, you will not only have to read the darkest pages of history, but also come into confrontation with those whose power is unlimited … «A masterly study of the genre, combining a large-scale historical context and the fears of modern society.» Aftenposten
