On the windswept shore of a frozen lake lurks a faceless killer determined to keep the past buried forever beneath half a century's silent ice and snow.
The body of a young woman surfaces in the River Torne, in the far north of Sweden. Meanwhile, Rebecka Martinsson is working as a prosecutor in nearby Kiruna. Her sleep has been disturbed by haunting visions of a shadowy, accusing figure. Could the body be connected to the ghostly young woman in her dreams?

Joining forces once again with Police Inspector Anna-Maria Mella, Rebecka is drawn into a murder and missing-person investigation that becomes entangled with old rumors of a German supply plane that mysteriously disappeared in 1943. Shame and secrecy shroud the locals' memories of the war, with Sweden's early collaboration with the Nazis still a raw wound.
With psychologically complex twists and turns, this harrowing thriller captivates from the very first page.

Review:
"Critics used to be able to dismiss crime fiction with a few condescending remarks about language and psychology. Soon they won't be able to do that anymore. Asa Larsson's book, for example, stands firmly on the three most important tenets: style, human understanding, and plot."--Svenska Dagbladet (Sweden)

"Larsson's best book so far. The supernatural elements are worked seamlessly into a complex and engaging mystery, resulting in a thoroughly compelling reading experience."--Booklist, Starred Review

"Larsson's laid back style makes her unflinching probing of the icy depths of the human heart all the more chilling."--Jake Kerridge, Telegraph

"Language that is by turn simple and clear, and by turn poetically brilliant."--Norrlandska Socialdemokraten (Sweden)

"Among the current batch of Nordic writers, the new Larsson is one to be followed with the most minute attention."--Barry Forshaw, Independent

"Stunning... As doom-filled as Larsson's leitmotif of ravens (in old Scandinavia the messengers of Odin, god of poetry and berserker fury), this remarkable tale of twisted love and vengeance and redemptive nonjudgmental devotion resounds, like its epigraph from the Book of Job, with all the pain of human existence."--Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
Book Description:
A shameful past and a secret worth killing for - a vivid tale of suspense from one of Sweden's finest crime writers.
