The Scream

The psychiatric hospital "Gøstad" in Oslo. On the dawn of a cold winter day, one of the patients is found strangled. His mouth is open in a silent scream. The arriving police inspector Sara Geringen immediately realizes that she is... faced with an extraordinary case. Questions arise one after another: what is the strange scar in the shape of the number 488 on the victim's forehead? Where did the sinister drawings on the walls of the hospital room, where he was held, come from? Why does the hospital management hardly possess any information about the identity of the person who spent more than thirty years there? Thus, for Sara, a convoluted and extremely dangerous investigation began, which will take her to various parts of the world: Paris, London, the volcanic island of Ascension, abandoned mines in Minnesota, Nice… Her partner will be French journalist Christopher Clarens, with whom she will uncover the shocking truth buried in super-secret laboratories.
