“The new ‘it’ boy of Nordic Noir” (The Times, London)
delivers an electrifying follow up to his New York
Timesbestselling debut
In The Keeper of Lost Causes, American audiences were
finally introduced to Copenhagen’s Detective Carl Mørck and
his creator, #1 international bestselling author Jussi
Adler-Olsen. Now, Mørck is back. He’s settled into
Department Q and is ready to take on another cold case. This
time, it’s the brutal double-murder of a brother and sister
two decades earlier. One of the suspects confessed and is
serving time, but it’s clear to Mørck that all is not what
it seems. Kimmie, a homeless woman with secrets involving
certain powerful individuals, could hold the key—if Mørck
can track her down before they do.
