Before the Storm

From Danish crime master Michael Katz Krefeld comes a gripping Nordic noir.

In the eye of the storm, truth is her only anchor.

Dr Maja Holm seeks solace in a desolate Norwegian coastal town, fleeing a turbulent past. But as her grueling work hours and self-medication take their toll, she teeters on the edge.

When a patient' s mysterious death raises suspicions, Maja' s intuition sparks a daring alliance with local TV journalist Stig Norland. Together, they plunge into the town' s secrets, racing against the impending polar storm.

But as Maja peels back the layers of the town' s dark façade, one question looms: will exposing the truth cost her everything—including her life?
