Description
A MISSING CHILD
In Karlstad, nine-month-old Beatrice is missing from her pram. Her parents are in shock and the media is in a frenzy.
A PERSONAL STRUGGLE
DI Charlie Lager is struggling with her own demons when she's called to investigate, forced to push them aside as the case intensifies.
A CLOCK RUNNING DOWN
As lead after lead goes nowhere, Charlie starts to feel like nobody actually wants the truth to come out about Beatrice as reluctant locals shut down in the face of her questions. And with each passing hour, the chance of finding Beatrice alive becomes less and less likely...
