Harry Kvist walks out the gates of Langholmen jail into the biting
Stockholm winter of 1935. He has nothing to his name but a fiercely
burning hope: that he can leave behind his old existence of gutter
brawls, bruised fists and broken bones. But the city has other
ideas. Nazis are spreading their poison on the freezing streets,
and one of Kvist's oldest friends has been murdered. Before he can
leave Stockholm's underworld for good, he must track down the
killer. As Kvist uncovers a trail of blood leading to the highest
echelons of Swedish society, the former boxer finds himself in a
fight to the death with his most dangerous opponent yet.

It's summer in Stockholm, and the city is sweltering in the grip of
a rare heatwave while fascists and communists beat each other
bloody in the streets. Harry Kvist has had enough. It's time for
him to leave. But first he has some business to take care of. His
old friend and ex-lover, Reverend Gabrielsson, has been murdered,
and the police are more interested in anti-Semitic rumours than
finding the truth. Kvist investigates the only way he knows how,
with his fists, uncovering a Nazi terrorist plot and a cabal of
corrupt cops. Before long he finds himself caught in the middle of
a turf war between two of the city's most brutal gangs. Can he
fight his way out of one last corner and find a way to freedom, or
has Kvist finally taken a punch too many?
