La polizia criminale di Oslo sa di avere un solo uomo che può risolvere il caso. Harry Hole, alcolista, uomo rude e solitario, inviso a molti. Ma Hole si è rintanato a Hong Kong, tra le fumerie d'oppio, per lavare via i ricordi.Sa fin troppo bene che, per risolvere l'ultimo caso, ha messo in pericolo di vita l'unica donna che ha mai davvero amato.

Harry Hole è di nuovo a terra. Ha ricominciato a bere, e da quando Rakel lo ha cacciato di casa abita in un buco a Sofies gate. Nell'appartamento ci sono soltanto un divano letto e bottiglie di whisky sparse ovunque. Ma Harry non è mai abbastanza sobrio da curarsene. La maledetta domenica in cui si sveglia da una sbornia colossale, non ha il minimo ricordo di cosa sia successo la notte precedente. Quel che è certo, però, è che ha le mani e i vestiti coperti di sangue. Forse, si convince, è diventato davvero un mostro.

A tre anni dalle nozze con Rakel, Harry Hole, ormai vicino alla cinquantina, sembra aver trovato un suo equilibrio e la forza per tenersi alla larga dai guai. Da tempo ha chiuso con l'alcol e per lui non ci sono più casi e indagini sul campo, solo un tranquillo incarico come docente alla scuola di polizia di Olso. Ma in città due donne vengono uccise nella propria abitazione a distanza di pochissimi giorni, e una terza viene ritrovata ferita sulle scale di casa. A collegare le vittime, il fatto che tutte e tre fossero iscritte a Tinder.
