Während eines Bankraubs wird eine junge Angestellte der Bank vom Täter erschossen. Die Tat macht keinerlei Sinn und wurde mit großer Kaltblütigkeit durchgeführt, was für Harry Hole ein Rätsel ist. Warum läßt sich ein professioneller Verbrecher so von seinen Emotionen leiten? Kompliziert wird die Angelegenheit, als Harry selbst unter Mordverdacht gerät und er untertauchen muss, um in dem Fall weiterermitteln zu können.
