In the coronary unit of a leading Copenhagen hospital, a nurse quietly administers a fatal overdose to an elderly patient. Days earlier, a paperboy makes a gruesome discovery in the heart of the city: the nude body of a young woman in a fountain, her arms marked by precise incisions, her body completely drained of blood. Detective Jeppe Kørner, navigating the aftermath of divorce and a fragile new relationship, takes the lead. His partner, Anette Werner--on maternity leave but unwilling to stay sidelined--begins her own unofficial investigation. But working outside the system draws her into increasingly dangerous territory. As the case unfolds, Jeppe and Anette uncover a horrifying pattern of exploitation and control lurking within caregiving institutions. What they find is as unsettling as it is deadly--and far closer than they ever imagined. A \"thrillingly nerve-racking\" (Shelf Awareness) Scandinavian crime novel, this gripping installment delivers a dark, atmospheric mystery exploring power, vulnerability, and the chilling consequences of misplaced trust.","brand":"Gallery\/Scout Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47057767497968,"sku":"9781982127619","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781982127619_p0.jpg?v=1763671435","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781982127619","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
