The first-novelist-turned-phenomenon Jens Lapidus is back with the second part of his Stockholm Noir Trilogy.
Niklas, a weapons expert has returned home after years as a mercenary. His world has no laws. His life has made him a violence fanatic and an adrenaline junkie. He is haunted by traumatic childhood memories.
One night, his mother calls, hysterical. Someone has been murdered in her apartment building.
Thomas is a demoralized cop. He's working the night shift when the call about the murder comes in. The victim had been badly beaten, and his arms have been pockmarked by syringes. But someone wants the case silenced- why?
Mahmud is just out of jail, and keen to live the high life. He has debts to someone he used to deal for. In a game of Russian Roulette his life is spared- but at what cost? He has to look for a man that he later wishes he never found.
