Grebe, Camilla
"Out of the frozen depths of a forest in Omberg
Sweden

her feet are bare
and she has no memory of what has happened. Local police identify her as psychological profiler Hanne Lagerlind-Schoen who
together with her partner
had been helping them investigate a cold case of a young woman's murder. Hanne begins to recover
but cannot recall anything about where her partner is
or what their investigation had uncovered before her disappearance. Police have only one lead: a young woman in a sequin dress who was spotted walking down the road the night Hanne was found. The young woman doesn't come forward
because she doesn't exist: Jake Olsson
a local teenager
had been out walking in hismother's dress and sister's makeup
his secret shame and thrill. Terrified of discovery
Jake hid when the car appeared and watched Hanne get into it
realizing too late that she left a diary behind. As Jake reads Hanne's notebook
he realizes it containsthe key to a major breakthrough in the case. But turning in the diary would mean admitting the truth about who he is. When another murder victim is found in the woods
Jake realizes Hanne herself is in danger
and his only choice is to find and warn herso together they can stop him before he kills again"--
