Dcera policejní ředitelky Margrethe Dybbølové odešla už před několika dny z domu a nikdo neví kam. Vzhledem k tomu, že se už několik týdnů pohřešuje jiná dívka z okolí, dělá si o ni Dybbølová vážné starosti. Existuje mezi zmizením obou dívek nějaká souvislost? Inspektor Liam Stark je právě povolán k mrtvole člověka, kterému někdo vyřezal do kůže hrozivé rány připomínající okénka adventního kalendáře. Liama i jeho osvědčenou parťačku Deu Torpovou pátrání záhy přivede k Monice le Fevreové, která vystavovala vycpaná zvířata s úplně stejnými jizvami. Postupně vychází najevo, že i boj za spravedlnost může mít své velmi temné stránky. Kde je hranice mezi dobrem a zlem? Spravedlivým trestem a krutostí? Kolik lidí bude muset ještě pykat za své činy? Pro policisty z dánského ostrova Fyn je tentokrát vyšetřování nezvykle citlivou záležitostí, která se jich nakonec dotkne ještě osobněji, než si vůbec dokázali představit.
