Dregs

The inspiration for thrilling BBC TV show Wisting, from the producers behind Wallander and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo A severed left foot in a training shoe washes up on the shore in Stavern. Then another, and another: four left feet in a single week. Inspector Wisting is an experienced policeman but has never seen anything like this before and has trouble making sense of the case. Has there been some kind of terrible accident at sea? Or does this indicate the killing and dismembering of multiple victims? Wisting suspects a link with the unsolved spate of recent disappearances in the area - the dregs of society, for his publicity-hungry superior, but people nonetheless. People who, in Wisting's eyes, deserve justice. Meanwhile Wisting's daughter Line, a journalist, is interviewing murderers recently released from prison. When it emerges that her interviewees have ties to the missing, Wisting cannot help but wonder if there is a larger, more sinister, force at work.
