He also killed the doctor, who had been at the party too and had raped Jenny’s friend Sarah, Sarah having told Lukas about the rapes. Gustavia admitted killing Jenny in a letter to his mother, found by his grandmother towards the end. Gustav’s mother had been raped by her grandfather.The Commissioner’s wife was having an affair with the mayor, whose son was one of those killed, so they split up. The big twist was that, though we knew that Maïa‘s daughter Alice had died in a car crash, her husband Ebbe had died too, so Maïa was really only talking to him in her head.
