Saturday, 09:07. A woman trembles in the back of a subway carriage, eyes wide with terror. She has a bomb, the timer on her chest counting down: Five. Four. Three. Two. One.
The explosion shakes Oslo, and the capital is immediately set on lockdown, with Holger Munch's elite team, and bright newcomer Mia Krüger, at the head of the investigation.
Mia quickly realizes that something doesn't add up, as the team finds three strange objects in the woman's house - items seemingly planted there with purpose.
As they investigate, a local journalist receives a horrifying phone call from a man claiming responsibility for the attack: She was only the first. More will follow, one every 24 hours... The clock is ticking, and it's ticking fast.
The real bomber is still out there - watching, calculating, stringing Mia and Munch along. Every second brings them closer to the next detonation - will they have enough time to beat the bomber at his own twisted.
