      Tweede deel van de bekroonde serie over Leo Asker. Inspectrice Leonore Asker is nog niet gewend aan haar nieuwe functie als hoofd van de afdeling voor verloren zielen, wanneer haar vader, na jaren van stilte, contact met haar opneemt. Op zijn boerderij is een lichaam zonder ogen gevonden, de politie is hem op de hielen en hij vraagt wanhopig om Leo's hulp. Maar is haar vader echt zo onschuldig als hij beweert, of probeert hij haar opnieuw in zijn web van leugens te trekken? Ondertussen vertrekt Martin Hill naar een afgelegen landgoed om de biografie van ondernemer Gunnar Irving te schrijven. Het landgoed beschikt over een privé-eiland met een verlaten astronomisch observatorium. Hill ontdekt al snel dat het landgoed veel meer geheimen verbergt – verhalen over mysterieuze lichten en verminkte lichamen. Terwijl Asker en Hill naar antwoorden zoeken, komt de Glazen Man uit de diepten van de duisternis, waar niemand kan terugkeren. Niemand, behalve hij.

      Detective Harry Hole embarrassed the force, and for his sins he’s been reassigned to mundane surveillance tasks. But while monitoring neo-Nazi activities in Oslo, Hole is inadvertently drawn into a mystery with deep roots in Norway’s dark past, when members of the government willingly collaborated with Nazi Germany. More than sixty years later, this black mark won’t wash away—and disgraced old soldiers who once survived a brutal Russian winter are being murdered, one by one. Now, with only a stained and guilty conscience to guide him, an angry, alcoholic, error-prone policeman must make his way safely past the traps and mirrors of a twisted criminal mind. For a conspiracy is taking rapid and hideous shape around Hole . . . and Norway’s darkest hour may be still to come.

    • Detective Harry Hole arrives in a steaming hot Bangkok. But it's work, not pleasure. The Norwegian ambassador has been found dead in a seedy motel room, and no witnesses have come forward. The ambassador had close ties to the Norwegian prime minister, and to avoid a scandal Harry is sent there to hush up the case. But he quickly discovers that there is much more going on behind the scenes and very few people willing to talk. When Harry lays hands on some CCTV footage that will help him unravel what happened that night, things only get more complicated. The man who gave him the tape goes missing, and Harry realises that failing to solve a murder case is by no means the only danger in Bangkok.

      Doppler je zpátky. Potřetí a naposledy. Po mnoha letech strávených v hlubokých opuštěných lesích si uvědomí, že má rodinu. Losa Bonga umístí do útulku pro jelení zvěř a putuje zpátky do Osla. Pevně rozhodnut vrátit se k normálnímu životu se těší na shledání s manželkou a dětmi, jenže jejich dům ve vilové čtvrti vypadá cize. Je natřený na modro a na poštovní schránce je pod jménem Dopplerovy ženy uvedeno ještě jedno jméno: Egil Hegel. Jak se zakrátko ukáže, je dotyčný krasavec a sportovec, podporuje dvě adoptované děti v Kolumbii a Bangladéši, a ke všemu vydělává přes sedmdesát tisíc měsíčně. Jak moc sympatický může člověk vůbec být? klade si zdrcený Doppler otázku. Ačkoli si původně myslel, že už dosáhl dna, jeho utrpení sotva začalo. Velké finále při hledání sebe samého na něj teprve čeká. I v závěrečném díle volné trilogie prokazuje Erlend Loe své vypravěčské umění, a tak se můžeme opět těšit na jeho suchý humor a naprosto absurdní situace.
