• Sommario/riassunto: "When a group of international activists arrive on the Faroe€Islands, intent on stopping the traditional whale hunts, tensions€between islanders and protestors run high. And when a€woman is found viciously murdered only hours after a violent€confrontation, the circumstances seem purposely designed to€increase animosity between the two sides. As English DI Jan Reyna and local detective Hjalti Hentze€investigate, it becomes increasingly clear that the murder has€other, more sinister aspects to it, and that crucial evidence is€being hidden. Neither policeman knows who to trust, or how far€some people might go to defend their beliefs."--Amazon.com.
