Two years later, she is working in Lapland for the Ivalo police department under Chief Inspector Järvi, who is more interested in criminal statistics and his social life than police work. They receive a letter from Irja Waltari, a priest's wife from the village of Käärmela on the Soviet border, informing them of the disappearance of Erno Jokinen. Hella jumps at the chance to investigate, but Järvi does not think a crime is involved. After all, people disappear all the time in the snows of Finland. When she arrives, Hella stays with the village priest and his wife, who have taken in Erno's grandson, who refuses to tell anyone his grandfather's secret. A body is then discovered in the forest, and Hella realizes that a crime has been committed. But what she doesn't know is that the small village of Käärmela is harboring another crime, a crime so evil that it is beyond anything any of them could have ever imagined. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                                                            \u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304 pages\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17 January 2019\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bitter Lemon Press\u003cbr\u003e\\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHella Mauzer made history as the first-ever woman Inspector in the Helsinki Homicide Unit, but her superiors deemed her too \"emotional\" for the demanding role and reassigned her.
