A novel by

 
 


When cyberactivists incite young Greenlanders in Nuuk to riot, Police Commissioner Petra Jensen must shut them down before the Twelfth Night becomes the city's last.

In the wake of a turbulent Christmas period, Petra Piitalaat Jensen has barely resolved one serious crime before another more urgent disturbance demands her attention.

Commanding a police force suffering from fatigue and stress, Petra must rally the department and lead them on the hunt for a group of cyberactivists inciting the young people of Greenland to rise up and take charge of their future.

In a series of escalating events, Petra is drawn into Greenland's dark underworld during the darkest month of the year, where traditional methods of policing require new thinking to overcome the first threat to Greenland's new-found independence.

Set in Greenland's future, "The Twelfth Night" twists Greenlandic politics, traditions and myths into a dark tale set in the darkest month of the year, in a frighteningly imaginable future.

"The Twelfth Night" is set many years after the events in the Greenland Crime series, but features several of the characters introduced in those books.

What readers are saying about Christoffer Petersen's books:

'The story is gripping and well thought out. The characters believable and the description of the locations and events are brilliant. This book left me eager to read more by the same author.'

'This is just a great book to read. Very good story and a great ending. Must read another of this series.'

'Absorbing and believable. What more could you want?'

'Recommend to everyone that likes a fast paced adventure, great characters, wonderful descriptions of the scenery. Want to read more books of the same quality.'

'I would recommend this book as a very enjoyable read. Very informative about life in the northern wastes, and difficult to work out who the exact villains are, but the way of life and the difficulties of living in the dark each and every 24 hours are perhaps the most rewarding.'

'This is a quick read and yet there was still something languid about the pace of the story that I found quite appealing. Definitely adding this author to my ever growing list of crime series to read.'

'I highly recommend this book if you love mysteries the way I do. Writing excellent. Plot and story excellent. Character development excellent. Interesting facts about life in Greenland.'
