His married lover, a successful Christian politician named Vibeke Farang, approaches private investigator Varg Veum to trace him. Discreetly. Varg finds Karsten dead in a cabin in the woods. The police arrest Vibeke's husband for his murder, but Varg is convinced they have the wrong man. He starts to investigate Aslaksen and the company for which he worked, Norrlon, and uncovers a deadly international conspiracy in which the principals will stop at nothing to protect their interests.
