When a pool of blood is discovered in a shuttered paper factory in Gävle—no body, no witnesses, no explanation—Superintendent Isa Lindstr''m knows the case won’t be simple.
The deeper her team digs, the stranger the trail becomes: missing security footage, sabotage, and a wall of silence from those who should know more.
Meanwhile, former detective Timo Paikkala is drawn into a cold case of his own—a young woman who vanished twenty years ago without a trace.
What begins as two separate investigations slowly converges, revealing a web of secrets, buried loyalties, and betrayals no one dared to face.
And at the heart of it all lies a question no one wants to ask:
How much blood must be spilled before the truth surfaces?
Because when shadows return, they never come alone.
Keywords: mystery, nordic noir, suspense
Genre: Mystery
