The plot:
the day when, just two weeks dall'agognata discussion degree Anna Bella Nor crosses the threshold with his colleagues of the office of Professor Lars Helland, the Faculty of Natural Sciences in Copenhagen, and found him dead in the womb with its view of biology, the shock was soon replaced by anger, a 'uncontrollable anger. On the other hand, Anna was born angry. Student and single mother, he hates everyone (with the exception of the little Lily is her baby): parents, the precarious life, the companion who has dumped, friends gone, and especially Helland, who gave her the agony for over a year. Now he has every reason to be furious when his scientific research - designed to put an end to the controversy concerning the evolutionary link between dinosaurs and birds - seem to be in the pipeline, the speaker is dead, the longed-for goal has always more distant and she is in trouble up to his neck. Because his exasperation with the teacher was known to all, and Anna is among the suspects for the murder.
It turns out that the real cause of death of the teacher is an army of larvae that invaded his body and has slowly eaten alive until the fatal attack.

Set in Copenhagen a new and attractive carpeted with snow and glittering lights, intense and gripping story that speaks of the bonds of the heart and blood, and secrets that can poison the existence
After reading many books written now from northern Europe, often dealing with repetitive themes, although topics which seem to be aware of such violence on women and beatings, suicides often, etc.., I expected to see me before the umpteenth book of this kind.
Also, do not call it a real thriller, in my opinion. Of course, the dead there, the cop and the investigation there, but spend almost overshadowed by the construction of the novel.
The writer points his finger on the interpersonal relationships between parents and children, gay and straight, between co-workers, to create a survey in the survey.
You will feel better to follow the lives of each character, to give a definite shape to each and give a clear connotation to the name.
At the base, a story that moves away from reality also Italian. as a researcher, impoverished and neglected, always looking for funds that come with a dropper and causing the flight of "brains" abroad. A game of interests to which one can not escape, even if those who really believe will do everything to get back at stake. The writer
