Mystery | Thriller Police Procedural
The exceptional fourth thriller in the Edgar-nominated
series featuring Inspector Kari Vaara. A missing woman too unimportant to raise alarms . . .
criminal masterminds too powerful to pursue. And when the
system fails, Inspector Kari Vaara must dispense his own
brand of justice. Kari Vaara is recovering from the physical and emotional
toll of solving the Lisbet Söderlund case when he's
approached with a plea: an Estonian woman begs him to find
her daughter, Loviise, a young woman with Down syndrome who
was promised work and a better life in Finland . . . and has
since disappeared. One more missing girl is a drop in the barrel for a
police
department that is understaffed and overburdened, but for
Kari, the case is personal: it's a chance for redemption,
to help the victims his failed black-ops unit was intended
to save, and to prove to his estranged wife, Kate, that
he's still the man he once was. His search will lead him
from the glittering world of Helsinki's high-class clubs
to the darkest circles of Finland's underground trade in
trafficked women . . . and straight into the path of
Loviise's captors, who may be some of the most untouchable
people in the country. As Kari works his new case, a past one comes back to
haunt
him when powerful enemies return to settle unfinished
business. In a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse, he is
propelled toward a reckoning in which the stakes are life or
death . . . and only the victors will be left standing.
