In a Norwegian coastal town, society's carefully woven threads begin to unravel when an unsettling stranger named Johan Nagel arrives.

At once arrogant & unassuming, righteous & depraved, Nagel seduces the entire community even as he turns it on its head--before disappearing as suddenly as he arrived.
