Forensic pathologist Lars Pohjanen has only a few weeks to live
when he asks Rebecka Martinsson to investigate a murder that has
long since passed the statute of limitations. A body found in a
freezer at the home of the deceased alcoholic, Henry Pekkari, has
been identified as a man who disappeared without a trace in 1962:
the father of Swedish Olympic boxing champion Börje Ström.
Rebecka wants nothing to do with a fifty-year-old case - she has
enough to worry about. But how can she ignore a dying man's wish?
When the post-mortem confirms that Pekkari, too, was murdered,
Rebecka has a red-hot investigation on her hands. But what does it
have to do with the body kept in his freezer for decades?
Meanwhile, the city of Kiruna is being torn down and moved a few
kilometres east, to make way for the mine that has been devouring
the city from below. With the city in flux, the tentacles of
organized crime are slowly taking over . . . Fragile yet fierce
Rebecka Martinsson returns in a spellbinding addition to the Arctic
Murders series, now a Walter Presents drama for television.
