Description

A missing person…a headless corpse… Jensen is on the case

June, and as Copenhagen swelters under record temperatures, a headless corpse surfaces in the murky harbour, landing a new case on the desk of DI Henrik Jungersen, just as his holiday is about to start.

Elsewhere in the city, Syrian refugee Aziz Almasi, driver to Esben Nørregaard MP has vanished. Fearing a link to shady contacts from his past, Nørregaard appeals to crime reporter Jensen to investigate.

Could the body in the harbour be Aziz? Jensen turns to former lover Henrik for help. As events spiral dangerously out of control, they are thrown together once more in a pursuit of evil, more dangerous than either could have imagined.

Heidi Amsinck is a writer and journalist born in Copenhagen now living in London. She has written many stories for BBC Radio 4, She is the author of 2 previous titles in the award winning Jensen series: My Name is Jensen and The Girl in the Photo. BBC Radio 4 will be broadcasting a week on Jensen stories The Bellevue Poltergeist in June 2024
