Publisher's Synopsis
Dag Meldel is no longer a Detective Inspector. He sits at home wondering about the life he has remaining. Then the death of his sister takes him to Oslo. At the railway station he picks up a dropped map. It has interesting marks upon it. Coincidences are things which Dag does not like. Indeed, he doesn't quite believe that's what they are. The map, his nephew and family, Rolf of the intelligence services, the Nobel Peace Prize, and even an old adversary, coincidentally link together. Dag can do nothing else but be involved in the unravelling of a combination of puzzling instances.
