Snow Grave

For decades, evil was hidden in the northern wilderness. Now it is back. 

Detective investigators Matilda Metso and Elmo Vauramo face the most shocking sight of their careers when a family of five is found murdered in an apartment building in Jyväskylä. 

The incident throws Matilda off track, and she returns to Angeli, her childhood hometown in remote Lapland, to recover. Once there, she is surprised to learn that she has one living relative. While investigating her family mystery, Matilda uncovers a cult that delivers sacrifices and builds human-looking snow figures in the wilderness. The past of the village seems to be full of hidden secrets. 

In Jyväskylä, the investigation of the family murder takes a special turn when it turns out that the case may be related to Matilda’s tragic past. The case threatens to throw the entire homicide unit into crisis, and Elmo has to admit for the first time that all cases may never be solved. 

Snow Grave is a chilling crime story about family and self-discovery, as well as the brutally beautiful nature and painful history of the North.
