A totally disfigured body leads detective Julia Gabrielsson on a hunt to discover its identity. As Julia's investigation progresses, a  web of power struggles, secrets, and hidden agendas begins to unravel; while those at risk will stop at nothing to stay in control. A very dark crime and political thriller which delves deep into the grey areas of human nature.  Fast paced and morbid at times, with a plethora of twists and turns.  A worthy second act to the equally brilliant "MemoRandum".
