Storyline

The brutal murder of a family in their Stockholm house launches a police investigation. The lack of clues prompts Detective Inspector Joona Linna to seek the help of a famous hypnotist, Erik Maria Bark. The idea is to have him interrogate the only survivor, a 15 year-old boy in a state of shock, to try and track down his missing sister. The investigation takes an unexpected turn when Bark's son is kidnapped. Joona and Erik Maria will have to work together to solve both mysteries.
