The final instalment of the Leo Junker series starts with the detective receiving a picture of a woman murdered five years ago with 'help me' on the back, and Junker trying to get his friends on the squad to take this investigation seriously despite them being distracted by a terrorist threat that might not be unconnected. Translated by Michael Gallagher.

Zusammenfassung
Detective Leo Junker thought he’d crossed his last line. But he’s never learned to say no.
So when an escaped criminal he knows all too well hands him a photo of a murdered prostitute, he reopens the cold case as a favour. Everyone’s busy and everyone’s got better things to do, but is there a darker reason that Angelica Reyes’ death has languished unsolved for five years? As Leo’s investigation pushes further into the past — Sweden’s, Angelica’s, his own — he’ll come face to face with the corruption at the heart of things.
Yet the reckoning may come too late — not only for Angelica Reyes, but for everyone.
