    The Past is Never Dead 
    Fredrick, once a star on the gridiron, now shadows the doorway as a bouncer, his life tangled in the smoky webs of Ace's illicit world. Tension crackles as Ace meets a familiar adversary, Uncle Bob, whose King of Clubs card and sharp blade cut through the obscurity of motives masked by smiles. 
    In their pursuit of Jack Bardlow, a disfigured legend lured by the promise of redemption, the lines between ally and enemy blur. As Fredrick steps deeper into this murky game of power and betrayal, each decision propels him further into a labyrinth where trust is scarce, and the stakes rise with every whispered secret. In a city where past sins never sleep, must Fredrick sacrifice his soul for salvation or revenge?

    A young girl’s life is torn apart when her parents are killed in the NATO bombing of Belgrade, Serbia, during the 1999 Kosovo War. An embittered Katarina Petrovic grows up with a hatred for Americans and becomes a willing candidate for special training by Russian agents. 
    Alex Baker commanded an Air Force Office of Special Investigations unit until an incident forced him to resign his military commission. Still in his thirties, he finds a new career as the owner of a Manhattan-based travel agency specializing in tour packages. When his father is assassinated, Alex is promised to be kept in the loop regarding the investigation. The OSI, FBI, and CIA begin a global hunt for a female assassin who appears to be targeting American pilots involved in the Belgrade bombing. 
    Alex is suddenly thrust into the middle of the investigation when events suggest he could also be on the assassin’s kill list. Is the woman making threatening phone calls the one who murdered his father? Or is she the alluring Dee Norton he meets supposedly by chance? Piece by piece, the mystery is unraveled, culminating in a thrilling conclusion on the island of Key West.

    When Bergen PI Varg Veum becomes involved in the disappearance of a young activist, he comes up against one village's particular brand of justice … The international bestselling, critically acclaimed Varg Veum series returns…
    `As searing and gripping as they come´ New York Times
    `One of my very favourite Scandinavian authors´ Ian Rankin
    `The Norwegian Chandler´ Jo Nesbø
    When Varg Veum reads the newspaper headline 'YOUNG MAN MISSING', he realises he's seen the youth just a few days earlier – at a crossroads in the countryside, with his two friends. It turns out that the three were on their way to a demonstration against a commercial fish-farming facility in the tiny village of Solvik, north of Bergen.
    Varg heads to Solvik, initially out of curiosity, but when he chances upon a dead body in the sea, he's pulled into a dark and complex web of secrets, feuds and jealousies.
    Is the body he's found connected to the death of a journalist who was digging into the fish farm's operations two years earlier? And does either incident have something to do with the competition between the two powerful families that dominate Solvik's salmon-farming industry?
    Or are the deaths the actions of the 'Village Beast' – the brutal small-town justice meted out by rural communities in this part of the world.
    Shocking, timely and full of breathtaking twists and turns, Pursued by Death reaffirms Gunnar Staalesen as one of the world's greatest crime writers.

    ABOUT THIS EPISODE 
     
     
     
    The white rabbit crashes storytime with Sila, Malcolm, and Seong-Jae—a little too literally, leaving our intrepid detectives battered but not broken. Yet what they find with the white rabbit's arrival could destroy even the strongest man: a diabolical game with over two dozen lives at stake, turning their final showdown into a macabre stage play with the white rabbit as its star. 
     
     
     
    Injured, limping, Malcolm and Seong-Jae must not only survive, but protect others until help can arrive; until they can corner their targets, and finally end the horror of the white rabbit's reign. The odds are evened—but the white rabbit has a more sinister plan in mind. 
     
     
     
    One must die so the other can live. 
     
     
     
    And carry on to tell the tale of his legacy, as he brings his performance to a shattering end. 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.
