I wondered for a moment which of the residents this apparently desperate and rather dubious character might know, and was very thankful that it was not me. Then the doorbell rang. 1972. On a cold March morning the weekend peace is broken when a frantic young cyclist rings on Inspector Kolbjørn 'K2' Kristiansen's doorbell, desperate to speak to the detective.
