In einem Vorort von Kopenhagen entdecken zwei Schulkinder in der Turnhalle fünf grausam ermordete Männer. Die Toten wurden mit mathematischer Präzision an der Decke aufgehängt. Trotz der bestialischen Inszenierung finden sich keine Blutspuren auf dem Hallenboden. Kriminalhauptkommissar Konrad Simonsen und sein Team um Nathalie von Rosen verdächtigen den Hausmeister der Schule: Per Clausen, ein gescheitertes Mathegenie, das die Polizei mit kryptischen Falschaussagen irritiert. Aber kein Mann allein kann diese Tat vollbracht haben! Die Identität der Toten scheint der Schlüssel zu den Tätern zu sein. Doch plötzlich wird in den Medien das Gerücht verbreitet, dass es sich bei den Mördern um Missbrauchsopfer handelt, die sich an ihren Peinigern von einst gerächt haben. Immer mehr Menschen aus der Bevölkerung sympathisieren mit dem angeblichen Racheakt. Konrad Simonsen muss die üblichen Ermittlungswege verlassen, bevor eine Lynchjustiz Dänemark regiert … Schweinehunde von Lotte Hammer · Søren Hammer: Spannung pur im eBook!

Under the heartless vault of the Greenland's artic sky the body of a girl is discovered. Half-naked and tied up, buried hundreds of miles from any signs of life, she has lain alone, hidden in the ice cap, for twenty-five years. Now an ice melt has revealed her. When Detective Chief Superintendent Konrad Simonsen is flown in to investigate this horrific murder and he sees how she was attacked, it triggers a dark memory and he realises this was not the killer's only victim. As Simonsen's team work to discover evidence that has long since been buried, they unearth truths that certain people would rather stayed forgotten, disturbing details about the moral standing of some of Denmark's political figures are revealed and powerful individuals are suddenly working against them. But the pressure is on as it becomes clear that the killer chooses victims who all look unsettlingly similar, a similarity that may be used to the investigators' advantage, just so long as they can keep the suspect in their sights...

In una mattina di lunedì, il team omicidi del capo ispettore Konrad Simonsen viene chiamato a una scuola elementare in un sobborgo di Copenaghen. Nella palestra pendono i corpi di cinque uomini nudi, torturati in modo sadico. Le loro mani e genitali sono stati rimossi, e i loro volti sono irriconoscibili a causa delle mutilazioni. Sembra un'esecuzione pubblica. Inizialmente, tutte le piste si rivelano infruttuose, finché i colpevoli non si fanno avanti in modo anonimo tramite internet: i cinque uomini erano pedofili e non sono stati semplicemente uccisi, ma puniti per i loro crimini – e nuove esecuzioni seguiranno. Una ondata di simpatia per i colpevoli si diffonde nel paese, alimentata dalla stampa sensazionalista. Il team di Simonsen si trova di fronte a un compito impossibile: mentre l'intera società danese sembra voltargli le spalle, devono trovare i assassini.
