Copenhagen Department Q has another cold case to solve - brutal double murder of a brother and sister 20 years ago. They find out that Kimmie, a homeless woman, holds the key but they need to track her down. Violent characters who hide behind their money are suspects. A bit long-winded but suspenseful and an insightful look at ruthless people. Can be read as standalone. Looking forward to next book & recommended to those who love Nordic thrillers.

Carl can still be a jerk, but some of the other characters in this dark tale make him look like a saint in comparison. Not a "whodunit," more of a police procedural (and a lot of the detecting is done by Carl's helper Assad). Some unpleasant aspects regarding animals make some of it hard to stomach unless you are an avid hunter. (And then you probably aren't reading translated mysteries.)
