It's the coldest winter in memory as ex-convict Peter Boutrup moves to remote, rural Denmark to start a new life. But when a young woman goes missing on New Year's Eve and Peter discovers the body of Ramses, an old acquaintance from prison, things start to unravel. Peter Boutrup just wants peace and quiet but he must accept that the truth lies hidden in the past he is trying to forget.
