About this listen

The downloadable, digital audiobook edition of Jussi Adler-Olsen’s sensational new thriller, read by the actor Steven Pacey.

Two boys, brothers, wake tied and bound in a boathouse by the sea. Their kidnapper has gone, but soon he will return. Their bonds are inescapable.

But there is a bottle and tar to seal it. Paper and a splinter for writing; blood for ink. A message begging for help.

In Copenhagen’s cold cases division Carl Morck has received a bottle. It holds an old and decayed message, written in blood. It is a cry for help from two boys. Is it real? Who are they and why weren’t they reported missing? Can they possibly still be alive?

book no 3 . had a job to put it down. A very dark plot well told and brilliantly narated with a sprinkling of humour between the well drawn characters of Carl , Rose and Assad . looking foward to book 4 .

brilliant . the series gets better and better.

...but very good! I enjoyed listening to 'Redemption'. The plot is intricate and full of suspense, the characters believable and not hackneyed, and the delivery excellent. Steven Pacey is a superb narrator with no irritating mispronunciations or dubious accents, (it must be the BBC background!).

Not quite Stieg Larsson....

this is the second time I've read this book and it's even better than I experienced the first time.

Pacey is my favourite reader

Just loved the whole thing. Brilliantly written and performed. A dark and distressing tale, but lots of humour to lighten the mood. Women are well portrayed, too. I liked the main characters and also the way little hints were set in place for the next book. Hooked now on Dept Q now!

Brilliant
