Thriller
1970: In an overcrowded Stockholm subway station, a harried
father and his two boys are late for their train. Joel, the
youngest, is howling in his stroller and his seven-year-old
brother, Kristoffer, refuses to take the elevator.
A
woman approaches and helpfully offers to lead Kristoffer up
the stairs. Reluctantly his father agrees, but when he
arrives on the platform Kristoffer and the woman have
vanished without a trace. The kidnapping becomes a national
sensation, but the boy is never found . . .
Today:
Joel, now an adult, goes missing in suspicious
circumstances. His frantic wife turns to Danny Katz--an old
friend with a troubled past--for help. A brilliant computer
programmer and recovering heroin addict, Katz is also the
divorced father of two young girls. Katz begins to dig
behind the digital veil in search of Joel, even though the
investigation quickly interferes with his duties as a
parent. Before long, Katz discovers he isn't the only one
trying to find Joel.
The deeper Katz digs, the more
upsetting the secrets he uncovers about the wealthy and
powerful family at the heart of the investigation.
Chillingly, the case takes a violent turn that reveals a
disorienting connection to Katz's own troubled
childhood--soon there will be no backing out of his
unofficial investigation.
