Detective Harry Hole is a loose cannon in the Oslo police force. He is also the main character in the novels by Jo Nesbø, king of the Nordic noir.

The new film by Tomas Alfredson follows Hole (Michael Fassbender) as he investigates a disappearance that could be linked to an elusive serial killer. Working with a brilliant recruit (Rebecca Ferguson), Hole must work to connect cold cases to the new one before the next snowfall.
