KURZE BESCHREIBUNG/ANMERKUNGEN: New York Times and internationally bestselling author Jussi Adler-Olsen returns with the sixth book in his exhilarating Department Q series, featuring Detective Carl Mrck and his enigmatic assistants Assad and Rose. AUSFÜHRLICHERE BESCHREIBUNG: New York Times and internationally bestselling author Jussi Adler-Olsen returns with the sixth book in his exhilarating Department Q series, featuring Detective Carl Mrck and his enigmatic assistants, Assad and Rose. In the middle of his usual hard-won morning nap in the basement of police headquarters, Carl Mrck, head of Department Q, receives a call from a colleague working on the Danish island of Bornholm. Carl is dismissive when he realizes that a new case is being foisted on him, but a few hours later, he receives some shocking news that leaves his headstrong assistant Rose more furious than usual. Carl has no choice but to lead Department Q into the tragic cold case of a vivacious seventeen-year-old girl who vanished from school, only to be found dead hanging high up in a tree. The investigation will take them from the remote island of Bornholm to a strange sun worshipping cult, where Carl, Assad, Rose, and newcomer Gordon attempt to stop a string of new murders and a skilled manipulator who refuses to let anything-or anyone-get in the way. BUCHBESPRECHUNG: Praise for The Hanging Girl: "Adler-Olsen wields a one-two punch of psychological suspense, as his trademark parallel plot follows the remorseless killer's manipulations while the humorous, sometimes touching rapport between Mrck and Assad threatens to steal the show. A must for procedural devotees and fans of Scandinavian mysteries." - Booklist Starred Review "All the requisite Adler-Olsen hallmarks are on display here: the easy camaraderie of the investigative team great moments of humor and Mrck's crotchety disposition. It helps to read the series in order, but these books are so good that it's no hardship to start at the beginning." - Bookpage "An intriguing read for devoted fans." - Library Journal "Simultaneously sardonic and funny." - Sacramento Bee "This book is not for the faint of heart, but for readers who enjoy dark humor and wisecracking heroes and heroines, you'll love Department Q." - Suspense Magazine "It can be hard to distinguish Scandinavian crime writers-there are a lot of them, and their names have consonant clusters and umlauts and all that jazz-but Jussi Adler-Olsen is a name to know. In a crowded genre, Adler-Olsen is an outlier." -GQ.com Praise for Jussi Adler-Olsen and his novels: "If you like the dark humor, wisecracking, and layered betrayals of Raymond Chandler, then read Adler-Olsen's Department Q series." - Men's Journal on The Marco Effect "A tense, pleasurable read." - USA Today on The Marco Effect "[A] sordid tale... inspired by actual events during a dark period of Danish history. Ah, but there is more, so much more in this frenzied thriller..." - The New York Times Book Review on The Purity of Vengeance "Adler-Olsen merges story lines...with ingenious aplomb, effortlessly mixing hilarities with horrors...This crime fiction tour de force could only have been devised by an author who can even turn stomach flu into a belly laugh." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) on The Purity of Vengeance "This series has enough twists to captivate contemporary mystery readers and enough substance and background to entertain readers with historical and literary tastes." - Library Journal (starred review) "Comparisons [to Stieg Larsson] are inevitable....Adler-Olsen's prose is superior to Larsson's, his tortures are less discomfiting, and he has a sense of humor." -- Booklist (starred review) on The Keeper of Lost Causes "Plan on putting everything else in your life on hold if you pick up this book." - The Oregonian on The Keeper of Lost Causes "When your series relies on cold cases, it's not always easy to craft plots that have both historical interest and an air of urgency, but it's something Adler-Olsen is very good at." - Booklist on The Purity of Vengeance AUSZUG AUS DEM BUCH: ALSO BY JUSSI ADLER-OLSEN The Alphabet House DEPARTMENT Q SERIES: The Keeper of Lost Causes The Absent One A Conspiracy of Faith The Purity of Vengeance The Marco Effect An imprint of Penguin Random House LLC 375 Hudson Street New York, New York 10014 Copyright 2014 by Jussi Adler-Olsen and JP/Politikens Hus A/S Translation copyright 2015 by William Frost Penguin supports copyright.

Dedicated to Vibsen and Elisabeth, two strong women PROLOGUE November 20th, 1997 She saw grey hues everywhere. Flickering shadows and gentle darkness covered her like a blanket and kept her warm. In a dream, she had left her body, hovering in the air like a bird. No, even better, like a butterfly. Like a multicolored fluttering piece of art, put in the world only to spread happiness and wonder. Like a hovering being high up between heaven and earth whose magic dust could awaken the world to endless love and happiness. She smiled at the thought. It was so beautiful and pure. Now the ceaseless darkness above her fought with dim glints like distant stars. It felt good, almost like a pulse conducting the sound of wind and rustling leaves. She couldn't move at all but she didn't want to anyway or she'd wake from the dream, and reality would suddenly kick in, and then the pain would come and who would want that? Now a myriad of images appeared from life-giving times. Small glimpses of her and her brother hopping out over the sand dunes, parents shouting that they should stop. Stop! Why was it always stop ? Wasn't it there in the dunes that she'd felt free for the first time? She smiled as beautiful beams of light slid under her like streams of mareel. Not that she had ever seen the milky sea effect before, but it must be like that. Mareel or liquid gold in deep valleys. Where was it she'd come to? Wasn't it a thought of freedom? Yes, that must be it because she'd never felt as free as she did just now. A butterfly that was simply its own master. Light and inquisitive with beautiful people around who didn't tell her off. Creative hands in all directions, pushing her forward and only wishing the best for her. Songs that lifted her and which had never been sung before. She sighed momentarily and smiled. Allowed her thoughts to take her everywhere and nowhere all at once. Then she remembered school and the bike, the icy cold morning and not least her chattering teeth. And just in that moment, when reality rushed in, and her heart finally gave up, she also remembered the crack when the car hit her, the sound of bones breaking, the branches of the tree that caught her, the meeting that . . . 1 Tuesday, April 29th, 2014 "Hey, Carl.
