In the endless light of a Swedish summer, some secrets refuse to stay buried. A record-breaking drought has exposed human remains on a remote lake bed in Sörmland. The victim disappeared six years earlier, triggering a huge search that found nothing.
Now Detective Avril Dahl wants to know why.
As Avril and her new partner reopen the case, they uncover disturbing links to other missing-person cases across the region. Then another person vanishes, and what began as an investigation into a long-forgotten death takes a darker turn.
Avril is beginning to wonder if they are hunting a serial killer.
But the case couldn't have come at a worse time. An internal review is underway at Stockholm police, and Avril has secrets of her own. Secrets she has kept even from Krister, the one person who has always stood by her.
As hundreds of volunteers join the search for the missing woman, Avril knows the answer is somewhere in the past. Someone has been hiding the truth for years.
And they may be closer than anyone thinks.
Set beneath the relentless daylight of a scorching Swedish summer, Cold Light is a gripping Scandinavian crime thriller about missing people, buried secrets and the devastating cost of trust
