The thriller by Swedish bestseller Stefan Ahnhem continues the gripping story of Motif X. Behind every murder lies a motive. In certain cases, however, this is unfortunately just an illusion. It is night, and an inflatable boat sets out from the port of Helsingborg with a single passenger. A sword is strapped to his back. His task has been determined by a die: Someone must die. He just doesn't know who yet. Meanwhile, the local police are trying to investigate several seemingly unrelated murder cases. When it seems they have finally succeeded, another victim is found, and detectives including Fabian Risk must admit: None of what we know is true. They must try, together with their Danish colleagues, to catch someone who doesn't need a motive to kill - but knows countless ways to do it.
