The chair of the Malmo city council is found dead right on the Danish-Swedish border on the ├ÿresund bridge between Copenhagen and Malmo – the corpse cut in half at the waistline. Detective Saga Nor├®n of Malmo CID is applied to the case and soon learns that the lower half of the corpse belongs to a yet unknown Danish woman. She is forced to team up with her Danish colleague Martin Rohde, who is slightly irritated by her unusual manners. At the same time, G├Âran S├Âringer is brought to Copenhagen’s Rigshospitalet to receive a heart transplant.
