The first in an exciting new series from the author of THE SILENCE OF THE SEA, winner of the 2015 Petrona Award for best Scandinavian Crime Novel. The only witness to a shocking murder is the victim's ten-year-old daughter, Margret. The police turn to the Children's House for their expertise in childhood trauma. Freyja doesn't much like the police - especially the detective in charge, Huldar. But she does want to help them catch the killer. And when more people die - their murders heralded by strange messages, texts, and strings of numbers - only working together will prevent danger getting ever closer to home.
