**NOW A MAJOR FILM AS THE HANGING SUN**

'A perfectly formed thriller that pierces the heart with its icy brilliance' Sunday Mirror

When you betray the Fisherman...

Jon is on the run. He has crossed Oslo's biggest crime lord. Fleeing to an isolated corner of Norway, to a mountain town so far north that the sun never sets, Jon hopes to find sanctuary among a local religious sect.

You can run.

Hiding out in a shepherd's cabin in the wilderness, all that stands between him and his fate are Lea, a bereaved mother and her young son, Knut. But while Lea provides him with a rifle and Knut brings essential supplies, the midnight sun is slowly driving Jon to insanity. And then he discovers that the Fisherman's men are getting closer...

But you can't hide.
