As cameras shadow the stars’ every move, relations with the locals are strained to breaking point.

A young child is snatched in broad daylight outside his nursery. Nobody in charge sees a thing, but the other children say a woman is the culprit.

As he finds a link between the boy and other others who have gone missing, it becomes clear that time is running out for everyone involved.

Quando un bambino sparisce da una scuola materna di Södermalm, a Stoccolma, l’agente Mina Dabiri è di nuovo in prima linea. Due anni dopo i drammatici eventi che li hanno fatti incontrare, Mina torna a chiedere aiuto a Vincent Walder, finendo per coinvolgere il celebre mentalista in un’indagine che questa volta la toccherà molto da vicino. All’esperto di psicologia e comunicazione non verbale, che molti ritengono perfino capace di leggere nel pensiero, saltano subito all’occhio le analogie con un caso di qualche anno prima, un dramma dal tragico epilogo.

Quando una donna viene trovata morta in una cassa di legno con il corpo trafitto da spade, la polizia di Stoccolma è frastornata: difficile capire se si tratti di un gioco di prestigio finito in tragedia o di un macabro rituale omicida. Le indagini vengono affidate a una squadra speciale: un gruppo eterogeneo di agenti scelti – e allergici alle procedure istituzionali – tra i quali spicca per doti investigative Mina Dabiri. Proprio Mina suggerisce di coinvolgere nel caso Vincent Walder, un famoso mentalista, profondo conoscitore del linguaggio del corpo e del mondo dell’illusionismo.

It’s a case unlike anything detective Mina Dabiri has seen before. A woman trapped inside a magician’s box, with swords pierced through. But this time, it’s not a magic trick. It’s murder. Knowing she has a terrifying killer on her hands, Mina enlists the help of celebrity mentalist, Vincent Walder. Only he can give her an insight into the secret world of magic and illusions. Mina and Vincent soon discover that the murder victim has the roman numeral III engraved on her leg. The killer is counting down.
