A case as cold as the season. A profiler who can't remember. A killer ready to strike again.

After She's Gone follows psychological profiler Hanne Lagerlind-Schön and her partner, investigator Peter Lindgren, as they are invited to the small, sleepy industrial town of Ormberg to investigate a cold case: ten years earlier, a five-year-old girl's remains were found in a cairn near the town.

However, when a recurring memory problem resurfaces, Hanne struggles to keep track of the case. She begins keeping a diary, noting down everything she is likely to forget to keep up appearances so she doesn't lose her job.

When the body of a woman is found at the cairn and one of Hanne's shoes is discovered nearby covered in the victim's blood, could Hanne's diary hold the key to what happened? How does this new murder connect to their old one?

How can you put together what happened when the pieces keep fading away?
