Sinopsis
The blue flashing lights are getting closer. Panic takes over. He drives fast. Too fast. And then, the crash... David Sarac, an intelligence officer, wakes up in the hospital, his body broken, his memory amputated. Unable to remember the last few months. Unaware of Janus, who is at the center of everyone's concerns, from the underworld of Stockholm to the highest echelons of the state.
Janus. His informant. A high-ranking criminal whom David supervised in total independence. His identity, hidden in the limbo of his failing memories, is the subject of many stakes. Everyone wants to know. And only David can answer. But who is he really?
