A VINTAGE CRIME/BLACK LIZARD ORIGINAL. Stockholm's Intercrime team--a specialized group created to investigate violent, international crime--was split up after their last case ended disastrously.

There is something dangerous approaching Sweden, and it's believed they are the only people who can do anything to stop it"--
