Another terrifying and psychologically convincing murder mystery
in the critically acclaimed Inspector
Sejer series.
Gunder Jomann, a quiet, middle-aged man from a peaceful
Norwegian community, meets Poona on a trip to India and the two
agree to marry. Gunder returns home to prepare for her arrival, but
the day Poona is due to arrive, he is summoned to the hospital as
his sister has been involved in a car crash. The driver sent to
collect Poona in Gunder’s place fails to meet her. Then the body of
an Indian woman matching Poona’s description is found in a
cornfield on the edge of the community and a murder enquiry is set
underway.
This baffling mystery — for what motive could there be to bludgeon a newly arrived foreigner to death — sends shock waves through the community. Inspector Sejer and Skarre are called in to investigate. Increasing suspicion surrounds people’s mundane daily activities, and even when one man’s confession seems to tie up all the loose ends, there remains the uneasy feeling that all is not as simple as it first appears.
