In the windswept heathlands of Jutland, Denmark, a simmering rivalry has erupted into a full-blown battle for control. Three long-time friends, once united by shadowy, profitable ventures, are now torn apart, caught in the crossfire of warring factions. A series of brutal events set off a chain reaction of fear and suspicion. People begin to disappear—some reappearing under mysterious circumstances, others vanishing without a trace.
As uncertainty spreads like wildfire across the region surrounding Holstebro, Chief Inspector Bjørn Hansen of the Central and Western Jutland police finds himself grappling with an investigation that is spiralling beyond his control. He had always believed he knew his district inside and out, but now he’s navigating a tangled web of criminal activities linked to powerful figures in the local community.
To complicate matters further, the district has a new police director, Helene Justesen. She exudes a cool detachment, seemingly unfazed by the escalating violence. Her apparent lack of interest in the growing crime wave raises red flags for Bjørn, who suspects she may have a hidden agenda of her own. As tensions rise, Bjørn is forced to question everything he thought he knew about his friends, his district, and the true forces at play in this deadly game.
