In an isolated fjord town, a young activist investigating environmental crimes goes missing. And nobody has seen anything.
Haunted by her past, criminal investigator Lena Ekström returns to remote Norwegian fjord town, Wolf Valley, where she is plunged into a desperate search for a missing young activist, whose tent lies abandoned on the land of a powerful local land owner.
Against the dramatic backdrop of the fjord, Lena must follow the trail through a tightknit, distrustful community to uncover long-buried secrets.
A chilling Nordic noir eco-thriller about the wild darkness within us all.
