Summary:

One night Inspector Irene Huss, stationed in Goteborg, is called through the rain-drenched wintry streets to the scene of an apparent suicide. The dead man landed on the sidewalk in front of his luxurious duplex apartment. He was a wealthy financier, connected through an old-boys' network, with the first families of Sweden. But the "Society suicide" turns out to have been a carefully plotted murder. As more murders ensue, she tangles with young street gang members, skinheads, immigrants and neo-Nazis, a cross-section of Sweden's disaffected. And ultimately this sensible wife and mother of two solves the crimes.
