Danish Red Cross nurse Nina Borg has dedicated her life to helping Copenhagen's most desperate: illegal immigrants, abused women, and others underserved by society. But Nina's do-gooder complex often takes her into dangerous situations and communities beyond the margins of the law's protection. Danish Red Cross nurse Nina Borg, the compulsive do-gooder, has meddled in one life too many, and her good deeds are coming back to haunt her. She is attacked in a parking lot on her way home from a grocery trip, her skull cracked. As her loved ones wait for her to regain consciousness, a story unfolds about three young men in Manila and the secret one of them is desperate to hide.

      At the start of Danish authors Kaaberbøl and Friis’s uneven fourth and final thriller featuring Red Cross nurse Nina Borg (after 2013’s Death of a Nightingale), an assailant apologizes after hitting Nina with a tire iron in a shopping mall parking garage, leaving her with a fractured skull. When the would-be killer sends flowers and Bible verses to her hospital room in Viborg, Nina and her new paramour, police officer Søren Kirkegard (no relation to philosopher Søren Kierkegaard), link him to a medical student she met in the Philippines, where she went on vacation five months earlier in a last-ditch effort to save her marriage. The plot drags at times, and the broadly drawn Filipino characters fail to transcend cardboard heroes and villains. The authors are at their best when they explore Nina’s confrontations with mortality—her own, her mother’s, her children’s, and Søren’s—and the effects of her often-dangerous choices on those she loves. Series fans will enjoy watching her relationship with Søren develop and deepen.
