A grieving detective on the edge. A missing woman. And a serial killer hunting in the shadows of Stockholm’s cobbled alleys.
Criminal investigator Thomas Ravnsholdt – known as Ravn – is adrift after the brutal murder of his wife. Once a relentless detective in Copenhagen’s special crime unit, he is now forced on leave, living in self-imposed exile on his neglected boat, with his grumpy Old English Bulldog.
But when a friend pleads for help finding a missing young woman, Ravn is pulled back into a grim world he swore he’d abandoned. His search crosses the cold waters between Denmark and Sweden, leading him to the stark and forbidding scrapyards of Stockholm, where victims are preserved like grotesque trophies. As the body count rises, Ravn must confront his own haunted past to deliver justice and perhaps find a path to redemption.
Dark and moody, “The Reckoning” is a Nordic noir thriller perfect for fans of Netflix’s "The Chestnut Man", and brooding Harry Bosch-like detectives such as Jo Nesbo’s Harry Hole and Jussi Adler-Olsen’s Carl Mørck in "Department Q".
Previously published as “Derailed”.
