About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
Following weeks of heavy rain, the earth comes crumbling down on one of Larvik’s residential areas, burying a handful of houses.
Detective William Wisting is quick to join the rescue operation. Luckily, by sunrise the next day, it becomes clear that the landslide has claimed no victims.
And yet, just twenty-four hours later, a body is found – and the victim was killed before the landslide.
As Wisting opens an investigation into the mysterious murder, he soon discovers this death might have dangerous ties to a series of ongoing cases.
And the clues start leading Wisting not towards an enemy on the outside – but to a traitor in his own unit…

Critic Reviews
A spare, sparse thriller that slips down very easily. Perfect weekend reading
Praise for Jørn Lier Horst (:)
Compelling, original and suspenseful (Kathy Reichs)
Tense, fast-paced...compelling
Relentlessly exciting...creates a sense of real menace
Spare prose, elegant structure, and a masterful layering of secrets and suspense. Brilliant! (Daniel Kalla)
Atmospheric
Jørn Lier Horst writes some of the best Scandinavian crime fiction available. His books are superbly plotted and addictive, the characters wonderfully realised (Yrsa Sigurðardóttir)
Horst, a former Norwegian police detective, is often compared to Sweden’s Henning Mankell for his moody, sweeping crime dramas
A powerful must read (Samantha M. Bailey)
