    • Journalist Hannis Martinsson unexpectedly receives a message from Sonja, an animal rights activist and environmentalist, claiming that she is his daughter and that her life is in danger. Reluctantly returning home to the Faroes to investigate her sudden disappearance, Hannis discovers Sonja’s body amid a local whale hunt. His search for answers soon brings him into conflict with the local police and uncovers a web of secrets in the close-knit community – but how far is he willing to go to learn the truth?
