Requirements: .ePUB reader, 500 KB
Overview: Three Swedish engineers are murdered in three different countries. The method is identical. The connection between the victims is nowhere to be found.
Four months into his new role as a European police coordinator, George Bracke is handed his first major international investigation. One victim dies in Belgium, another in Portugal, a third in Wales. All three have been poisoned with arsenic, yet they appear to have had nothing to do with one another.
As Bracke brings together investigators from several countries, the trail begins to lead backwards — all the way to the Second World War.
A forgotten file reveals that the fathers of the three murdered men once worked at Vemork in occupied Norway, where heavy water played a crucial role in German nuclear research. What happened there decades ago was never meant to resurface. But someone is determined to make sure that the past remains buried.
From Ghent to Scandinavia, Britain and beyond, Bracke finds himself caught in a case where science, wartime secrets, ambition and murder become dangerously intertwined. And the deeper the investigation reaches into the past, the clearer it becomes that the killings may be about far more than revenge.
