Eighteen Below: A new serial killer thriller from the million-copy Scandinavian sensation

Description

**FROM THE MILLION-COPY SCANDINAVIAN BESTSELLER** ON A HOT SUMMER'S DAY. A car speeds through the streets of Helsingborg. When it reaches the harbour, the driver keeps going, straight into the cold, dark sea. A BODY IN THE WATER. But it is not a suicide. The autopsy reveals that this man has been dead for some time. He was murdered two months ago, and his body has been deep frozen. TURNS EVERTHING COLDER. As more bodies are discovered, Fabian Risk must hunt a killer with a mission: to preserve his victims, and create the perfect death... From the same author as VICTIM WITHOUT A FACE.
