The book focuses not only on the criminal acts but also significantly on the procedures, the systematics, and the human costs associated with solving crimes in Denmark.

The real case

The book is based on the everyday life at the Copenhagen Police, where Martin Wittrup Enggaard has been a central figure in the investigation of complex cases over the years. Although the book operates with a number of anonymized details to protect ongoing procedures and relatives, it draws clear threads to the methods used in real Danish murder cases. The reader follows the process from the first call to the dispatch center, through the technical securing of the crime scene, to the crucial interrogations in the department for violent crime. It is a story about patience, precision, and the constant pursuit of justice in a legal system that demands indisputable evidence.
