Røveri mod et dansk ægtepar på ferie i Frankrig og en tilsyneladende harmløs københavnsk edb-hacking sætter kriminalassistent Allan Markussen på sporet af en pengeafpresningsaffære, hvor der er milliardbeløb på højkant.

Krustrup (f. 1934), dansk forfatter.

Em uma obra em que o ouvinte é levado constantemente a questionar o que lhe é apresentado, Delphine de Vigan constrói um clima confessional, sombrio e opressivo para expor a obsessão do mercado editorial e do cinema pelas narrativas baseadas em fatos reais. A linha tênue entre verdade e mentira oscila para enriquecer uma poderosa reflexão sobre o fazer literário e questionar as fronteiras entre aparentes dicotomias, como real e ficção, razão e loucura, público e privado. Um audiolivro brilhante, que joga com os códigos da autoficção e do thriller psicológico.
