Captured on closed-circuit television: A man walks into an
Oslo bank, puts a gun to a cashier's head, and tells her to
count to twenty-five. When he doesn't get his money fast
enough, he pulls the trigger. The young woman dies—and two
million Norwegian kroner disappear without a trace. After a
drunken evening with his former girlfriend, Anna Bethsen,
Police Detective Harry Hole wakes up at home with a
headache, no cell phone, and no memory of the past twelve
hours. That same day, Anna is found shot dead in her
bedroom, making Hole a prime suspect in an investigation
led by his hated adversary Tom Waaler. Meanwhile, the bank
robberies continue with unparalleled savagery, sending
rogue detective Hole from the streets of Oslo to steaming
Brazil in a race to close two cases and clear his name. But
Waaler isn't finished with his longtime nemesis quite yet.
