Więcej o książce

Jussi Adler-Olsen's internationally bestselling Q series returns with a gripping installment for fans of Scandinavian crime thrillers. Two brothers wake tied in a boathouse by the sea, abandoned by their kidnapper but aware he will soon return. With only a bottle and tar, they craft a desperate plea for help using blood for ink. Meanwhile, a woman is trapped in a tumultuous marriage, enduring her husband's secrets and threats. Determined to uncover the truth, she is prepared to confront the consequences. In Copenhagen's cold cases division, Carl Morck discovers a bottle containing a decayed message written in blood—a cry for help from the boys. He questions its authenticity, their identities, and whether they are still alive. In 2013, the creators of the Stieg Larsson films and The Killing will adapt Adler-Olsen's Department Q novels, including this one, for the big screen. Praise for Adler-Olsen highlights his status as a rising star in Nordic Noir. His exploration of abnormal psychology continues to captivate readers. Born in Copenhagen, he studied various subjects and worked as a magazine editor before embarking on his writing career, with all three Department Q thrillers achieving bestseller status in Denmark.
