Description

In a remote mountain town where silence has always been a survival strategy, two brothers—Roy and Carl—carry the weight of a shared past that refuses to stay buried. Roy has stayed behind, keeping his head down, while Carl has returned with big plans, a mysterious new wife, and an opportunity that promises prosperity but smells of something darker. As old deaths and long-simmering tensions resurface, outside forces close in, turning family loyalty into a dangerous liability. Jo Nesbø delivers a tense, atmospheric thriller driven by moral compromise, buried secrets, and the question of what it really means to protect—or betray—those you love.
