Produktbeschreibung

Elvind Jansen leaves prison after twenty years, with what he is sure is a foolproof scheme for a future life of luxury. Three days later he is dead - shot on the 6th tee of Måttesby golf course.

Blackmail seems the likely motive for the first two, but which of the dozen or so residents of Måttesby was the subject of the blackmail?

Desperate, he hits the bottle for the first time in his life - and continues to do so. Cnut becomes convinced that the residents of the new houses in the small village are connected in some way, not only to the deaths and to each other, but also to Arne Bredsson, the entrepreneur who owns the whole complex, and believes that therein lies the key to the mystery.

With the new knowledge they obtain reveals a tale of sexual depravity so horrific that Ilse feels sick. With all the answers in his possession, Cnut has two life or death decisions to make…
