Description
The newest instalment in the Munch and Mia series, following the pair as they investigate a bomber terrorising Oslo.
Saturday, 09:07. A woman trembles in the back of a subway carriage, eyes wide with terror. A scream pierces through the thick air. She has a bomb, the timer on her chest counting down: Five. Four. Three. Two. One.
The explosion shakes Oslo, and the capital is immediately set on lockdown, with Holger Munch's elite team at the head of the investigation. They are joined by the bright and promising Mia Krüger, who has just dropped her sister off at rehab.
Mia quickly realises that something doesn't add up, as the team finds three strange objects in the woman's house — items seemingly planted there with purpose.
As they investigate, a local journalist receives a horrifying phone call from a man claiming responsibility for the attack: She was only the first. More will follow, one every 24 hours... The clock is ticking, and it's ticking fast.
The real bomber is still out there — watching, calculating, stringing Mia and Munch along. Every second brings them closer to the next detonation — will they have enough time to beat the bomber at his own twisted game?
