Questo audiolibro si apre con una telefonata. Come sempre, si tratta di lavoro e la vacanza di Van Veeteren finisce senza che il commissario possa godersi la malinconia degli ultimi giorni. A Kaalbringen, una piccola città non lontana da dove il commissario sta trascorrendo le ferie, si aggira un assassino, che ha già colpito due volte.
