A dramatic political thriller from one of Denmark's finest crime writers.

Peter Lime is trained to hunt down his prey and catch them on film. But now he is the one being hunted. Whose prey has he become? And what is it that he has that these people will kill to get? Lime is a Danish paparazzo, living in Madrid. For more than 20 years he has stalked and captured the rich and famous on film, making vast sums of money from exposing their secrets - the more salacious the image, the bigger the fee. But lately he's been thinking of giving it up. His wife and child have changed his life, and now he dreams of doing a job that his daughter can be proud of. Then he goes on a routine assignment, snapping a Spanish minister out sailing with his mistress, and suddenly his world is turned upside down. When a fire destroys his home, but not all of his photographs, Lime sets out to discover a motive and finds himself drawn into the complex and terrifying web of international terrorism.

As a paparazzo in Madrid, Peter Lime has hunted and captured the rich and famous on film for over 20 years. He has made a fortune exposing their secrets, the more scandalous the picture the bigger the fee. But Lime remembers the idealism of his youth and wants a different life now, with a job that will make his daughter proud of him. He then goes on a routine assignment snapping a Spanish minister out sailing with his mistress and his world is ripped apart. A fire destroys his home and family, but not all of his photographs. He is now the one being hunted and sets out to discover who is trying to kill him and why, leading him into a complex terrorist plot. Investigative journalist Davidsen delivers a highly plausible political thriller with a compelling and entertaining plot. (Kirkus UK)
