Mystery Woman Sleuth
WHEN THE ICE MELTS, WHAT REMAINS?
Thirty-four years old, blond, single, divorced with a
teenage daughter, Fors is the most driven superintendent who
has ever worked on the police force in her small, isolated
town. And the most talented. In her job, she is constantly
moving through the borderland between life and death. Her
path in life is violent and hazardous. Linköping, Sweden, is surrounded by a landscape of plains
and forests—a fault line on the edges of society where time
seems to have stood still and where some people live
entirely according to their own rules. In the early hours of
a frigid night, during the coldest February anyone can
remember, the bloody body of an obese man, stripped bare and
horribly mutilated, is found hanging from a lone oak tree in
the middle of a frozen, snow-covered, and windswept plain
not far from town. The young superintendent Malin Fors is assigned to the case.
Together with her colleagues from the Investigation Section
of Linköping’s Crime Unit, she must track down the identity
of the man in the tree and the reason why he ended up there.
And at the same time they must follow in the frigid wake of
a killer who has just begun his work. It is a manhunt that
will take Malin into the darkest corners of the human heart
where the sins of the past— hidden away—all too often wreak
havoc from one generation to the next.
