When Lars’ wife Henriette goes missing from their fjord side cabin on a dark night, the disappearance shakes their small town to the core. Everyone believes Lars killed her. Lars – who knows more than he lets on – has spent the year since keeping up the pretense, not least towards his police officer brother and distressed teenage daughter. Then Lars’ new girlfriend also mysteriously goes missing, at the same time as he starts to receive disturbing texts from a phone number that should have stayed silent forever. As one of Norway’s top homicide detectives is sent out to prove that Lars is a killer, the past comes back to haunt Lars and sends him into a nightmarish downward spiral.
