Poisonous lies
Norwegian title: Giftige løgner
–Faster! I panted. –If he unleashes that beast, we’re dead! And I thought: He won’t. He’s not that mad. He can’t be that mad! But I still knew it: People have been bitten by guard dogs before, and they hadn’t even been breaking and entering.
Pelle and Prof are in Steinsund in Southern Norway, visiting Lena at a rehabilitation centre. Prof meets Gerd there, a young nature activist working hard to uncover who is polluting the Steinsund fjord. It's full of poison. Pelle and Prof offer their help—together, can they discover the guilty party and save the fjord?
