When a priceless local relic is stolen from Kautokeino, Lapland, detectives Klemet Nango - a familiar face in the rural community - and Nina Nansen, fresh out of the local police academy, are called to investigate. There are just a few days until the locals will host a UN World Heritage conference, and they are under pressure to retrieve the artefact, due to be presented to a world-renowned French scientist as part of the celebrations. When a local reindeer herder is found brutally murdered, they immediately suspect that the two events are linked. But the villagers don't take too kindly to having their secret histories stirred up and the duo are forced to cross the icy landscapes alone in search of the answers that will lead them to a killer.
