Description
Spring arrives hesitantly in Malmö, and Detective Ulf Varg finds little warmth in his work at the Department of Sensitive Crimes. As he investigates the blackmail of a celebrated novelist alongside another deeply personal and delicate case, Varg must navigate the hidden motives, emotional complications, and quiet absurdities of modern Swedish life. With its wry humor and affectionate parody of hard-boiled Scandinavian noir, the novel explores empathy, morality, relationships, and the difficulty of understanding what people truly want.
