The Missing

Every city has its ghosts. Ravn just hunts the ones that still breathe.

Former investigator, Thomas Ravnsholdt—known as Ravn—drifts like wreckage along Copenhagen’s harbour, numbed by cheap liquor and old wounds. But his peace is shattered when a desperate young woman shows up, pleading for help: her brother has vanished after stealing millions.

The trail leads Ravn from the windy docks of Copenhagen to Berlin, where ghosts of the Cold War still linger: Stasi files, double agents, and brutality that never truly came to an end. Ravn soon realises that the missing is not merely lost, but ensnared in a deadly web.

Dark and unnerving, The Missing blends a classic disappearance mystery with Nordic Noir slow-burning tension. Perfect for fans of Jo Nesbø's and Jussi Adler-Olsen's haunted detectives.
