A Short Eternity

Norwegian title: En kort evighet

Eystein Hanssen

A brutal and spectacular crimewave hits Norway. The professionalism of the crimes and the lack of evidence make it almost impossible for the police to pursue the culprits. Detective Elli Rathke needs to use all of her wits and eventually finds a connection to the Yugoslav civil war and a feared war criminal. Elli and her colleagues have to travel to present-day Sarajevo, a city where the wounds of the past are still wide open.
