Description

Two young women vanish after a property tycoon's party. Police find one woman's body with a strange mark from the killer. They fear more deaths will follow. Soon, a second body turns up, then a third.

Harry Hole has lost his job with the police. He now drinks heavily in Los Angeles and refuses to return to Oslo. That changes when danger threatens the woman who once saved him. To stop the murders, he must bring together an unlikely team. Readers also follow the acts of a man who calls himself Prim.
