One morning before school, two children find the naked bodies of five men hanging from the gym ceiling. The case leads detective Konrad Simonsen and his murder squad to the school janitor, who may know more about the killings than he is telling. Soon Simonsen realizes that each of the five murdered men had the same dark and terrible secret. And when Simonsen's own daughter is targeted, he must race to find the culprit before his whole world is destroyed.

Reviews

“The best Danish crime fiction in years.”

“Enthralling, pacey, and intricately plotted, The Hanging kept me on the edge of my seat and illuminated a dark corner of Danish society.”
