Summary

THE NO. 1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR

WINNER OF THE GLASS KEY AWARD

In this heart-pounding installment of the No.1 bestselling Department Q series, a terrifying international investigation reveals the complex backstory of one of the department's own - the enigmatic Assad.

The newspaper refers to the dead body only as Victim 2117 - the two thousand, one hundred and seventeenth refugee to die in the Mediterranean Sea.

But to three people, the victim is so much more, and the death sets off a chain of events that throws Department Q, Copenhagen's cold cases division led by Detective Carl Mørck, into a deeply dangerous - and deeply personal - case: a case that not only reveals dark secrets about the past, but has deadly implications for the future.

For a troubled Danish teen, the death of Victim 2117 becomes a symbol of everything he resents and is the perfect excuse to unleash his murderous impulses. For Ghallib, a brutal tormentor from the notorious prison Abu Ghraib, the death of Victim 2117 was the first step in a terrorist plot, years in the making. And for Department Q's Assad, Victim 2117 is a link to his buried past and to the family he assumed was long dead.

I know I am saying what everyone else has said but what a joy to have Steven Pacey back. Karl, Assad, Rose and Gordon have come back to life. Maybe not enough camels but we have all been waiting for Assad’s back story and now we have it. I hope there will be another and please, please it must be read by Steven. It’s been a joy to listen to during these very strange times.

He’s back!
