A young woman is found beheaded in an infamous business tycoon's marble-lined hallway. The businessman, scandal-ridden CEO of the retail chain Clothes&More, is missing without a trace. Who is the dead woman? And who is the brutal killer who wielded the machete? Rewind to two months earlier: we meet Emma, a timid beauty with a troubled past. Emma works as a sales clerk in a branch of Clothes & More. Her life is turned upside down when the company's controversial CEO Jesper Orre walks into the store and their chance encounter leads to a love affair. Because of his public persona, Jesper insists their relationship be kept a secret. Emma's world is shaken a second time when Jesper suddenly leaves her without explanation. As frightening things begin to happen to Emma, she suspects Jesper is responsible. Why does he want to hurt her? And how far would he go to silence his secret lover?Back in the present, the police struggle to track down Jesper Orre and identify the decapitated woman found murdered in his home. Veteran police investigator Peter Lindgren is put on the case that has striking similarities to an unsolved murder he worked on ten years earlier. Psychological profiler Hanne Lagerlind-Schön has just been given a diagnosis of onset dementia that leads her to question the life she finds herself living: why stay with her bully of a husband when she has so little time left? When she gets pulled into the murder investigation, Hanne comes face to face with her past: Peter, with whom she once had a whirlwind affair but whose commitment issues left them both deeply scarred. While they struggle to hunt down a brutal murderer, Hanne and Peter are inevitably drawn together once again. The Ice Beneath Her is an entrancing story about love, betrayal and obsession that is simply impossible to put down. What does love do to us, and what can love make us do? Skilled suspense writer Camilla Grebe takes the reader on a wild ride with twists at every turn of the page.
