De Stumme Piger

A brutal murder of convicted rapist Gordon Nimb forces investigator Tanya Nielsen to delve into his dark past. With a long list of victims who might seek revenge, Tanya faces a complex case filled with silence and secrets.

Uncovering the truth behind the silent victims of a notorious criminal.

When Gordon Nimb, a convicted rapist, is found brutally murdered, Tanya Nielsen must dig deep into his troubling history. Nimb was not only convicted of seven rapes but also boasted about numerous unsolved cases and victims he referred to as the "silent girls."

Tanya struggles to get support from her superior and mentor, Jakob Nordsted, who is currently on sick leave. Things take a darker turn when Nordsted becomes a suspect in the murder. For years, he has insisted that Nimb was also responsible for the murder of a young girl found abused in a container.

Adding to the mystery, police surveillance spots Nordsted’s dull gray Honda Accord outside a drug den in Copenhagen’s Nordvest district, which is later attacked by a man matching Nordsted’s description.

Alongside her new colleague Kadeem Forrashi, Tanya races to identify Nimb’s hidden victims, clear Nordsted’s name, and capture the true killer.

De stumme piger is a standalone sequel to Steffen Jacobsen’s 2019 bestseller Proxy.
