Eine Siedlung am Fuß des Bergs Inussuk. Dreiundvierzig Erwachsene leben hier, zwölf Kinder. Noch, denn der Friedhof wächst, während das Dorf schrumpft. Die Verdienstmöglichkeiten sind schlecht, die jungen Leute wandern in die größeren Orte an der Westküste ab. In eins der leer stehenden Häuser zieht Constable David Maratse. Bei seinem letzten Einsatz in der grönländischen Hauptstadt Nuuk wurde der Polizist so schwer verletzt, dass er dienstuntauglich erklärt und frühpensioniert wurde – und das mit nicht mal vierzig. Er lässt alles zurück, was er besitzt, will künftig nichts weiter tun als Fischen und Jagen. In Inussuk aufgewachsen ist Nivi Winther, inzwischen Vorsitzende der grönländischen Sozialdemokraten und amtierende Premierministerin. Als mitten im Wahlkampf ihre siebzehnjährige Tochter Tinka spurlos verschwindet, beauftragt sie Maratse, den Fall zu übernehmen. Winthers größter Konkurrent ist Malik Uutaaq, der eine neue nationale Identität und die Unabhängigkeit Grönlands propagiert und als machtgieriger Populist gilt. Und er soll die letzte Person sein, die das Mädchen lebend gesehen hat …

Ese año, sin embargo, no podían imaginar que aparecería el cadáver de una joven en las gélidas aguas árticas. Su asesinato puede cambiar el destino de la mayor isla del mundo y obligará a Maratse a abandonar su retiro forzoso.
