The Hanging Girl
THE MULTI-MILLION COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR. Superstar author Jussi Adler-Olsen returns with the sixth book in his Department Q series, featuring much-loved Detective Carl Mørck. For fans of Tim Weaver and Jo Nesbo.
In the middle of a hard-won morning nap in the basement of police headquarters, Carl Mørck, head of Department Q, receives a call from a colleague working on the Danish island of Bornholm. Carl is dismissive at first, but then he receives some shocking news.
Carl then has no choice but to lead Department Q into the tragic cold case of a vivacious seventeen-year-old girl who vanished from school, only to be found dead hanging high up in a tree. The investigation will take them from the remote island of Bornholm to a hidden cult, where Carl and his assistants must stop a string of new murders by a skilled manipulator who refuses to let anything—or anyone—get in the way.
The Hanging Girl by Jussi Adler-Olsen is a gripping novel that will take you on a chilling journey filled with suspense and intrigue.
