At the 38th parallel, at the military zone between North and South Korea, several gunshots suddenly echo through the night. Two North Korean soldiers fall dead, and a South Korean is seriously injured. No one understands what has happened. But the mysterious incident stirs dangerous feelings. Neutral investigators must be brought in quickly, flown in from Sweden and Switzerland. The mission is led by Major Sophie, who will be the first woman to set foot in the area since 1953. Soon, she discovers a horrifying secret that must be revealed at any cost—before the countries are thrown into an international disaster.
