The Shadow People

Norwegian title: Skyggefolket

Even Stubberud is on his way into the deep Amazonas rainforest, seeking The Shadow People. A mystical tribe that avoids contact with the rest of the world. With them a dead geologist has hidden maps showing huge riches hidden in the rainforest – information that Russia, the USA, the Venezuelan government and cartels wants their hands on. Even’s task is to find the maps first, and destroy them.

Simultaneously, Norway is trying to negotiate a peace treaty between the Venezuelan government and Andrés Palmero, the leader of the opposition. Russia launches a cyber attack on Norway, and the message is clear: Keep out of it. Russia wants Palmero dead. The consequences could be a full-scale war between the superpowers.
