Ce qui aurait dû n'être qu'une routine diplomatique va se transformer en traque impitoyable au fur et à mesure des meurtres qu'Harry Hole refuse d'ignorer. Autre hémisphère, autres méthodes... Associé à un flic aborigène étrange, bousculé par une culture neuve assise sur une terre ancestrale, Hole, en proie à ses propres démons, va plonger au coeur du bush millénaire. L'Australie, pays de démesure, véritable nation en devenir où les contradictions engendrent le fantastique comme l'indicible, lui apportera l'espoir et l'angoisse, l'amour et la mort : la pire des aventures.

Les premiers flocons ont quelque chose de féerique. Ils rapprochent les couples dans la chaleur des veillées, étouffent les bruits, étirent les ombres et masquent les traces. Dans le jardin familial des Becker, un bonhomme de neige fait son apparition, sorte de croquemitaine blanc, ses grands yeux noirs braqués vers les fenêtres du salon. Le lendemain matin, la mère a disparu; seule reste une écharpe rose autour du cou du bonhomme de neige... Trop de femmes en Norvège, depuis des années, n'ont plus donné signe de vie le jour des premières neiges. Harry Hole reçoit une lettre qui lui annonce d'autres victimes. D'une sobriété étonnante, l'inspecteur va se retrouver confronté, pour la première fois de sa carrière, à un tueur en série agissant sur son territoire. L'enquête le conduira jusqu'au gouffre de la folie.
