"A fast-paced and skilfully plotted thriller" BARRY FORSHAW
When a picture of two Danish girls who disappeared on a boat bound for England in 1985 emerges many years later in an old suitcase from a British second-hand dealer, the journalist Nora Sand's professional curiosity is immediately awakened.
Before she knows it, she is mixed up in the case of a serial killer serving a life sentence in a notorious prison. The quest to discover the truth about the missing girls may be more dangerous that she had ever imagined...
Fatal Crossing is inspired by a real incident, in some photos of unknown girls, taken at Copenhagen Central Station, appeared in the possession of an American serial killer. Journalist and author Lone Theils was fascinated by the case, and set to work on her debut novel.
