"A little girl spared by her family's murderer. Can she ever truly be safe? A police inspector haunted by a crime scene. Can he let go of the past? A criminal informant desperate to leave a dangerous life behind. Can he keep his family alive? Seventeen years ago, Stockholm criminal inspector Ewert Grens knocked on the door of a family's home. All had been murdered, except one: the five-year-old daughter. Now, Grens learns that the same apartment is the scene of a break-in, and he immediately fears that someone is intent on silencing the only witness. He races to find her...before they do. Meanwhile, a mysterious figure in the city's criminal underworld is executing weapons smugglers, putting former police informant Piet Hoffmann's new identy and his family in grave danger. He must unravel the baffling threat to his family, all while keeping secrets of his own. Soon, the two men are forced to rely on each other's help...and face a truth more shocking than they could have imagined."-- (less)
