Welcome to Litsy!

The acclaimed author of Burned is back with more heart-stopping suspense in a gritty and thrilling sequel that pits Norwegian crime reporter Henning Juul against an international crime ring. From the internationally bestselling author of Burned (�Possibly the best $15 you�ll spend on a mystery this year.� �Bookpage) comes a taut and riveting tale of secrets, betrayals, and a dangerous quest for the truth. If you find out who set me up, I�ll tell you what happened the day your son died. That is the message crime reporter Henning Juul�back at work after being terribly burned and scarred for life in a fire that killed his son�receives from a jailed extortionist named Tore Pulli who�s been convicted for a murder he claims he didn�t commit. Truth has never meant more for Henning Juul. And when Pulli is found dead in his prison cell�an apparent suicide�Juul decides to dig deeper. He knows the murders Pulli was convicted of do not bear his signature, and he�s convinced that Pulli would never have taken his own life. Striking up a fragile partnership with Iver Gundersen, a journalist now living with Juul�s ex-wife, Juul uncovers an internal power struggle in the gang world, where the desire for serious money is destroying the traditional, honor-based hierarchy. Uncovering more questions than answers, Henning soon realizes that he has to find not one but several killers . . . ruthless murderers who have never been more dangerous than they are now.
