THE NO. 1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR27 MILLION BOOKS SOLDWINNER OF THE GLASS KEY AWARDJussi Adler-Olsen returns with the newest book in his acclaimed Department Q series. In the middle of a hard-won morning nap in the basement of police headquarters, Carl Mørck, head of Department Q, receives a call from a colleague working on the Danish island of Bornholm. Carl is dismissive at first, but then he receives some shocking news. Carl then has no choice but to lead Department Q into the tragic cold case of a vivacious seventeen-year-old girl who vanished from school, only to be found dead hanging high up in a tree. The investigation will take them from the remote island of Bornholm to a hidden cult, where Carl and his assistants must stop a string of new murders by a skilled manipulator who refuses to let anything-or anyone-get in the way. For fans of Tim Weaver, Mick Herron and Jo Nesbo.
In the tradition of Alan Furst, the #1 international bestselling author of the Department Q series delivers his first stand-alone novel, a psychological thriller set in World War II Nazi Germany and 1970s England. British pilots James Teasdale and Bryan Young have been chosen to conduct a special photo-reconnaissance mission near Dresden, Germany. Intelligence believes the Nazis are building new factories that could turn the tide of the war. When their plane is shot down, James and Bryan know they will be executed if captured. With an enemy patrol in pursuit, they manage to jump aboard a train reserved for senior SS soldiers wounded on the eastern front. In a moment of desperation, they throw two patients off the train and take their places, hoping they can escape later. But their act is too convincing and they end up in the Alphabet House, a mental hospital located far behind enemy lines, where German doctors subject their patients to daily rounds of shock treatments and experimental drugs. The pilots' only hope of survival is to fake insanity until the war ends, but their friendship and courage are put to the ultimate test when James and Bryan realize they aren't the only ones in the Alphabet House feigning madness. Millions of fans around the world--and in this country--know Adler-Olsen for his award-winning Department Q series. His first stand-alone, The Alphabet House, is the perfect introduction for those who have yet to discover his riveting work.
En telefonsignal skär genom källaren i Köpenhamns polishus och väcker kriminalinspektör Carl Mørck från den sedvanliga morgonluren med fötterna på skrivbordet. När Carl förstår att kollegan från Bornholm vill ha Avdelning Q:s hjälp med ett gammalt hopplöst fall blir han genast avvisande. I andra änden av tråden läggs luren tyst på. Några få timmar senare står det klart att konsekvenserna av Carls kallsinnighet varit katastrofala. Tillsammans med kollegorna Assad, Rose och Gordon dras Carl in i utredningen av en sjutton år gammal tragedi. En ung livsglad kvinna försvann från en folkhögskola på Bornholm och hittades död hängande i ett träd några kilometer därifrån. För den skeptiskt lagde Carl blir det mystiska fallet särskilt svårt att finna reda i. Efterforskningarna leder till en soldyrkande sekt på Öland och en manipulatör med järnvilja som inte skyr några medel för att skydda sig själv och de sina. Den gränslöse är den sjätte delen i Jussi Adler-Olsens hyllade kriminalserie om Avdelning Q. En berättelse om vanvett, passion och besatthet.

It is now a major movie, released in the UK in August 2014. At first the prisoner scratches at the walls until her fingers bleed. But there is no escaping the room. With no way of measuring time, her days, weeks, months go unrecorded. She vows not to go mad. She will not give her captors the satisfaction. She will die first. Copenhagen detective Carl Mørck has been taken off homicide to run a newly created department for unsolved crimes. His first case concerns Merete Lynggaard, who vanished five years ago. Everyone says she's dead. Everyone says it's a waste of time. He thinks they're right. The voice in the dark is distorted, harsh and without mercy.
