About this listen

Piet Hoffmann is the best undercover operative in the Swedish police force, but only one other man is even aware of his existence. When a drug deal he is involved in goes badly wrong, he must face the hardest mission of his life – infiltrating Sweden’s most infamous maximum-security prison.

Detective Inspector Ewert Grens is charged with investigating the drug-related killing. Unaware of Hoffman’s real identity, he believes himself to be on the trail of a dangerous psychopath. But he cannot escape the feeling that vital information pertaining to the case has been withheld or manipulated. Hoffmann has his insurance: wiretap recordings that implicate some of Sweden’s most prominent politicians in a corrupt conspiracy. But in Ewert Grens they might just have found the perfect weapon to eliminate him.

It just made me think about it when not listening, really immersed in story.

It took me awhile to get into it, however once the action started the storyline got better.

Once the action starts the twists keep coming

This is action packed but uses a clever plot to engage the listener without just becoming a catalogue of violence.It will appeal to all lovers of nordic noire.

Fast paced and thrilling
