Co-authorship

The novel immerses the reader in the atmosphere of Baltic noir and introduces an elusive maniac who has appeared in the city. The police are helpless, while writer Otto Vernell has the courage to take on a joint book with the Absorbent and try to understand him. But what is the price of a future bestseller? And most importantly — who is Otto now: a co-author, an accomplice, or the next victim? This is a story about how looking into the depths of one's own soul can sometimes be scarier than writing a thriller in collaboration with a serial killer.
