After a bloody hostage situation at a Stockholm bank, Detective Paul Hjelm faces a potentially career-ending Internal Affairs investigation. However, he is quickly reassigned to an elite task force by the National Criminal Police commissioner to track down a sophisticated killer targeting Sweden’s high-profile business leaders. This elusive murderer breaks into homes at night, executes victims with precision, and removes bullets from the walls, all while playing a rare bootleg recording of Thelonious Monk’s “Misterioso.” Hjelm, along with his energetic partner Jorge Chavez and the rest of the team, follows leads through the dangerous underworlds of the Russian Mafia and an exclusive society of Sweden’s wealthy elite. Their investigation also uncovers a troubling undercurrent of xenophobia affecting both the police and the perpetrator in a rapidly internationalizing nation. This gripping tale is the first in Arne Dahl’s acclaimed Intercrime series, offering a dark and compelling introduction to the author’s intricate world.
