Carl wasn't the kind of police officer that you would think of when you think of exemplary. He had his troubles. Most recent was the loss of one partner and the incapacitation of another.
The government decided to make a special division for cases that haven't been solved and in need of some special attention. Carl's boss figures that he is the perfect person for the job. It will keep him out of the way, and the money budgeted can be spread out and used elsewhere in other departments.
So Carl and his assistant Assad pick the case of Merete Lynggaard, who disappeared 5 years ago. After just a few inquiries, Carl realizes that everything that could have been done on the case wasn't. She went missing from the ferry, but her body was never found.
What happened to her and will he be able to solve his first case?
It took me a little while to get into, but I am glad I persevered. Reminded of the CBS show "Cold Case". I hope more of the series gets translated. Very good read!
