A missing-person case in the viral age

When sixteen-year-old Lena Palmer disappears after a video of her assault spreads online, chief inspector Yashira leads an investigation with both professional and personal stakes: she is also the mother of a teenage girl. The search moves through Lena’s family and social circle, but the case resists familiar explanations. As far-right groups intervene, the investigation becomes a race against time and a test of what can be learned from violent images circulating online. The thriller brings together a missing-person inquiry, public reaction to digital media, and the risks of taking justice into one’s own hands.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Thriller readers interested in a missing-person investigation.
  • Readers drawn to stories about technology, viral media, and violence.

Book overview

Black Mirror meets Stieg Larsson in Views, a compulsive thriller that explores the toxic relationship between technology and humanity, and the fallout after unthinkable lines are crossed.

Sixteen-year-old Lena Palmer has gone missing when a violent video of her assault by masked men goes viral. Yashira, chief inspector at the German FBI, has been put in charge of the case. As a single mother of a sixteen-year-old girl herself, Yashira is deeply affected by the crime and swears she will do everything in her power to find Lena Palmer. Surely the video must contain clues. Who are these people? Why would they commit such a horrible crime?

Together with her partner Michael they follow all the usual suspects. Lena's father. Her boyfriend. Her friends. Nothing in this case seems to follow any of the usual patterns. Far-right groups are quickly taking matters into their own hands. Yashira is running out of time, but it feels like she's chasing a ghost.
