Two boys, brothers, wake tied and bound in a boathouse by the sea. Their kidnapper has gone, but soon he will return. Their bonds are inescapable. But there is a bottle and tar to seal it. Paper and a splinter for writing; blood for ink. A message begging for help... Her husband will not tell the truth: where he goes, how long he will be away.

Jussi Adler-Olsen's internationally bestselling Q series returns with Redemption, a gripping treat for all fans of the Scandinavian crime thriller.

A letter in blood, a horrifying disappearance. . .

Two boys, brothers, wake up tied and bound in a boathouse by the sea. Their kidnapper has gone, but he'll be back. They cannot escape . . .

In Copenhagen's cold cases division Carl Mørck has received a bottle.

It holds an old and decayed message, written in blood.

It is a cry for help from two boys. Is it real?

Who are they and why weren't they reported missing? Can they possibly still be alive?

He needs to find out, and fast . . .
