Uppsala, Sweden. A naked man is unearthed from a river with a
lacerated neck and the only clue to his identity is the remains of a
tattoo that has been sliced off his arm. When a local drugs deal
goes awry and another man is hospitalised with a similar wound,
Inspector Ann Lindell and her team are called in to investigate. All
clues lead back to the local Dakar restaurant, run by the gluttonous
Slobodan Andersson.
As Lindell delves deeper and is drawn into a dangerous maze of
kidnap, blackmail, drug smuggling and betrayal, she must face a race
against time to catch the killer.
Already one of Scandinavia's crime-writing stars, Kjell Eriksson's
third Ann Lindell mystery, is a thrilling display of brooding
backdrops, unsettling suspense, and intriguing characters.
'Eriksson's crime novels are among the very best' Henning Mankell,
