She defies all warnings and leaves the University to travel North. She has a message for the local police: the man charged with the murder, is not the killer. But no one's willing to listen to her theories. Not until Maja dares to delve into her own most dangerous, repressed memories of childhood will she be able to stop him and soon she realize that the killer is closer than she ever imagined.
