All the Tranquil Dead

Rosemary for remembrance. But some secrets are better left buried. Detective Inspector Maria Wern wakes up in a dark, concrete bunker with a throbbing head wound and a corpse for a cellmate. The man beside her is cold, dead, and has a single sprig of rosemary pinned to his chest. The message is clear: Someone is watching her. Someone knows her every move. The nightmare began with a routine missing persons report. Rosmarie Haag's husband, a high-end estate agent, vanished after a business dinner with a man whose face was hidden by dark glasses and leather gloves. Maria's superiors dismiss it as a simple case of a husband running astray, but Maria sees the cracks in the story. As Maria digs deeper, she uncovers a web of ancient grudges and modern extremism, where everyone in town seems to have a motive. But as the killer draws Maria into a twisted game of remembrance, she realizes the bunker wasn't just a prison - it was a preview. Under severe time pressure and with a department that refuses to see the truth, Maria must identify a killer who has nothing left to lose before she becomes the next body to disappear. In this pulse-pounding sequel to The Speechless God, Maria Wern discovers that the most dangerous predators don't just kill - they make sure you never forget. 'Tight, captivating and with high speed. Efficient and thrilling scenes. Warm personal portraits, especially of the female police officer who is torn between her work and her family. We all know the feeling.' - The Police Magazine
