The killer was supposed to be gone. But the killings are hauntingly familiar.
Detective Ravn thought he was done with the worst of homicide. He lives quietly on his houseboat, Bianca, working as a PI on trivial domestic dramas – until a nervous client asks for help finding an old school friend.
Seventeen years ago, two boys committed a crime so brutal they vanished into witness protection. New names. New lives. Gone. Now, women are being hunted across Copenhagen. The attacks are vicious, ritualistic and unmistakably familiar.
Ravn’s client is certain: one of those boys is behind the attacks. As Ravn starts to unravel a trail of unsolved assaults and sadistic murders, he finds himself up against a killer who has been perfecting his methods in the shadows and a witness with unclear motives of his own.
The fourth book in Michael Katz Krefeld’s gripping Ravn series. Perfect for fans of the Harry Hole series by Jo Nesbø and Søren Sveistrup’s “The Chestnut Man”.
Content warning: this book contains graphic violence and depictions of sexual assault and child abuse.
