Au cœur de la Cornouailles, une nouvelle enquête de Barbara Havers et de Thomas Lynley risque de réveiller les blessures du passé. La découverte du corps de Michael Lobb, sauvagement assassiné, fait voler en éclats la paix de Trevellas.

Flanqué de l'inspecteur Apputiku, Qaanaaq va mener l'enquête au pays des chamans, des chasseurs de phoques et du froid assassin. Il remontera peut-être ainsi jusqu'au secret de ses origines, à la source de ses démons. La neige omniprésente, les icebergs à la dérive, la lumière crépusculaire : la vie au Groenland semble paisible. Pourtant, passée la blancheur virginale de ces paysages, les tensions entre autochtones et colons ainsi que la dangerosité immanente au lieu menacent.

Ils pensaient résoudre une affaire, ils sont devenus l'énigme. Au cœur des profondeurs glacées du continent blanc, les plus grands flics scandinaves se sont réunis pour résoudre ensemble une affaire qui menace l’intégrité de leurs pays respectifs. L’inspecteur Qaanaaq Adriensen, chef de la police locale, prend la tête de l’expédition qui les emmène sur le territoire hostile de l’inlandsis – un désert glacé de plusieurs centaines de kilomètres carrés. Et quand un membre du groupe disparaît, tout bascule définitivement.

Que peut le meilleur des flics quand une enquête en vient à ébranler sa raison ? Sous la beauté impassible des paysages du Groenland couvent les passions les plus noires.

Cela fait pourtant sept mois qu’il officie sur la grande île blanche, comme chef de la police locale. En compagnie de son adjoint, l’Inuit Apputiku Kalakek, il trompe son ennui en jouant à la roulette groenlandaise. Jusqu’au jour où, dans la baie touristique de Diskø, un cadavre est retrouvé, figé dans la glace d’un iceberg.
