Mickel Cardell is awakened to pull a floating body out of the Larder. The body has no arms, legs, eyes, tongue. In order to find out how this happened, he is put in contact with Cecil Winge. Cecil Winge is a lawyer and it will be up to the two of them to find out about this horrible death.
Kristofer Blix is a young man trying to make his way in the world. What becomes of that is outrageous!
Anna Stina Knapp is motherless and works for her father at his bar.
These characters all intermesh in this novel. It is well-rounded and quite a nice mesh.
The story is a little gruesome, but well worth the read.
