2026: Human remains turn up behind an apartment wall
When human remains turn up behind an apartment wall, DI Henrik Jungersen knows he is hunting for a killer that has been hiding in plain sight.
Jensen, who should be enjoying maternity leave, is struggling with her own challenge – legendary author Valde Brix says he is her father. But Brix has an ulterior motive: he wants Jensen to use her sleuthing skills to find the stalker who is threatening to ruin his life.
When a woman connected to Brix turns up brutally murdered, Jensen and her teenage apprentice Gustav become embroiled in Henrik’s investigation. It becomes clear that the stalker won’t stop,until Brix is destroyed. With growing horror, Jensen realises that her own loved ones are in mortal danger
Copenhagen
The author says:
Each of my books featuring Copenhagen crime reporter Jensen is set in or around a specific neighbourhood of the Danish capital. For the fifth book, The Woman in the Wall, I chose Frederiksstaden, constructed in distinctive rococo style by King Frederik V in the 18th century. Among other notable buildings in this rather exclusive part of town, you will find Amalienborg Castle, home to the current King Christian X and Queen Mary. Stand on the octagonal plaza in front of the palace and you can look across the harbour to the modern Opera House, which featured in book three in the series. With its broad streets and open spaces, the area is great for a stroll away from the bustle of Strøget, Copenhagen’s main shopping drag.
