When the Prime Minister’s chauffeur is found dead, detective Arto Ratamo, a secret service agent in Helsinki, is convinced that the case is more complex than it first seems.

What seemed to be a simple criminal case has now transformed into a grand scale investigation across Europe, uncovering a network of political espionage. Someone is expertly manipulating the diplomatic relations between Russia and Finland and Ratamo needs to find out who and why, before it’s too late.
