Summary
The tragic impact of a crime still echoes through Wolf Valley. But it’s not what Lena expects.
Wolf Valley is in the grip of a major storm as Lena leads a desperate search for the missing child. As the community rallies, unsettling discoveries hint at old wounds and long-buried resentments that are beginning to surface. With the past and present colliding in a murderous conspiracy, a last vital revelation sets Lena off on a race against time to prevent the killer from claiming his next victim…
The powerful conclusion to Wolf Valley, a noir thriller set within a Nordic fjord valley fractured by devastating secrets and long-ago tragedy.
