MIRAGE (BLÄNDVERK)
Cilla & Rolf Börjlind
A heavily pregnant Olivia Rönning travels to the Lofoten Islands in northern Norway to be with the father of her child, Ove Gardman, who is working there on a marine biology project. The idyll is shattered almost immediately: Ove disappears during a dive. As the search grows increasingly desperate in rough seas, powerful currents, and treacherous ravines, the mounting strain becomes so intense that labor begins earlier than expected.
When Tom Stilton and Luna arrive to support Olivia, Tom learns from a local man named Kris about a forgotten tunnel leading straight out to the sea. As they venture down into it together, they make a series of astonishing discoveries.
Journalist Jannike Biörck has been missing for several months, and the traces after her ends in Berlin, where she appears to have been closing in on a group of ruthless fraudsters. Veteran police officer Mette Olsäter and German investigator Regina Schlaager’s search for Biörck, and the explosive story that may have cost her life, seems to provoke someone determined to silence witnesses and erase every trace of the truth, whatever the cost.
