" Nina is making sandwiches." " Great." "Did we buy beer?" " Did we buy beer?" " Damned if I know." " Nina?" " What's the matter?" "Nina!" " Are you in labor?" " We have to go!" "Get my bag!" " There are three weeks left!" " Not anymore!" "Get Nina's bag from the bedroom!" " How are you doing?" " Are we there yet?" " We have 10 km to go." " We'll be there soon, honey." " We didn't cover the roof..." " Is that all you care about?" " Honey..." " You go back." "I'll hitchhike." "Come on, you'll be parents soon." "Think about that instead." " How the hell can it just go away?" " Everyone's different." "Hanna came as soon as we gothere." "Maybe he's just not ready yet." "You can come in now." " Howare you?" " I'm fine." "But..." " They want me to stay a few days." " Why?" "Her uterus feels hard." "We want to observe her." " When will it come?" " A couple ofdays; it's hard to say." " You can go work on the roof." " We can stay." " I think it's better if we call you." " I'll be fine." "You should go home." " Are you sure?" " Yeah... it might rain." " Good bye." " Good bye." " We need roofing tiles." "Come along." " I'm not going to jail for that!" " No one lives there!" " I'll help here - get them yourself." "God, it's great to be on my own!" " We haven't screwed in four months!" " Why not?" "She's not in the mood." "You're her brother, doesn't she tell you things?" "All I knowis you're fighting more than usual." "She always starts it." "These past months she's been a real pain." " It'll be better when the baby comes." " I sure as hell hope so." "Let's go have a brew." "Come to daddy..." "Shit!" "You want a beer?" "On me, okay?" " Gimme three pints." " Thomas!" "Hi!" "Are you here alone?" " No, Sigge's here, too." "You?" " No, unfortunately." "Martin is here." " So, are you a dad yet?" " No, but Nina is at the hospital." "Shouldn't you be with her?" "What the hell is going on?" "!" "Stop it!" "Stop it, dammit!" "What the hell...?" "Come on, let's go." " Cool it, dammit!" " That bastard!" "We were just talking!" " Who was it?" " Someone Susanne had with her." " Were you hitting on her?" " Go to hell." "That was years ago." " Of course you were hitting on her." " Don't tell Nina." "Promise me." "Don'tworry." "What do you think I am, anyway?" "Yes, it's me." "It's ten after eleven." "Asshole." "It's Jenny." "Call me about Thursday." "I'm expecting you to pick up Hanna." "And so Is she." "Bye!" "Shutup!" " Hello?" " Hi, it's me." "Did I wake you?" " Yeah." "What time is it?" " Eleven fifteen." " Sorry, you're usually up this late." " Yeah, but the others are asleep so I fell asleep, too." " Is everything okay?" " Yes." " I don't want to wake the others." " Okay, I'll call you tomorrow." " Sleep well, honey." " You, too." "You know..." "I miss you." " I guess I'll have to learn." " It's nothard." " Really?" " Sure." "Woman power and all." " Otherwise, come here and I'll help." " Thanks." " Howdy." " Hi." "How can you not know how to put oil in the car?" "It's like notbeing able to tie your shoes!" "What a total wreck!" "He's checking if the engine is still there." "Now two dollars' worth of gas." "Or a gallon of berries." "That happened last summer." "85 crowns." "How about that..." "Okay..." "let's see..." "See you tonight, Thomas!" " Where are they from?" " Estonia." " Sigge, you got a minute?" " I'm aboutto leave." "Larsson and I have been talking about the bakery..." "Doing calculations and considering buying it." "Come in for a minute." " Honestly, now, whatwould you do?" " I'd say yes in a heartbeat." " Three people to share the burden!" " Yeah, but $20,000...!" " It's notmuch to be a joint owner." " For me it's a hell ofa lot!" " Take out a loan, then!" " I can't!" "I have bad credit!" "I'll cosign." "You can't miss a chance like this, Sigge!" " I'll pay you back..." " Knockit off!" " Come visit Nina with dad and me." " I have to work." " Has anything happened yet?" " Nah, she's just lying around." "Ohh, how nice!" "But I haven't had the baby yet." " You need a little attention now." " They hover over me here!" " Is Sigge working?" " Yeah, they're going over accounts." " He's going to take over the bakery." " You don't say!" " I hope you're taking care ofher." " Don't worry." "This is my first grandchild." " Can you say when...?" " Dad!" "No, but it won't be too long." " Hi." " Hi." " Is that your first grand child, too?" " My first child, actually." "First child...!" "He was older than me." "And she wasn't even 25!" " Jealous?" " Jeal... it'll never last!" "No, you should know." "What did that Ann-Marie look like?" "You never told me." "Blonde, brunette?" "Fat, skinny?" "Big breasts?" "Shaven head?" "That's enough!" "Okay, who should we talk about?" "Mom?" " She would have liked to meet Nina." " I can't keep apologizing forever!" "We all make mistakes." "You will, too." " No one could help that she got sick!" " That's whatyou want to believe." "Maybe she got sick because you left." "Whenever I mention her, you say I'm accusing you." "You must feel guilty." "Ow!" " What are you up to?" " Just playing." " Leave him alone." " Who was that old man?" " Hi, longtime no see!" " You can say that again." "Hanna!" " I hope she recognizes you." " Daddy!" " Hi!" " Do you have the bread truck?" " I do, so you'll have to work." " Cool!" "Letme getmybag." "Can't you stop smoking indoors?" "It's bad for Hanna." "It's my house." "She's hurt worse by you staying away for months." " It's been three weeks." " That's forever for an 8-year old." "I've been working overtime." " I'm going to be a joint owner!" " Then you'll paymore child support?" "I promise to come twice a month if you stop smoking indoors." " I have a newbook!" "Wanna see?" " In the car." " Bye-bye!" " We'll call when we're coming back." " How's it going, Hanna?" " It won't work!" "Come help, daddy!" " Start with the four corners." " What four corners?" "You can do it." "Go in the tent and hold the stakes." "I'll drive them in." " It smells funny in here!" " It smells funny?" " Elephant." " Elephant?" "Isn'tt here an elephant in there?" "Here's the elephant!" " You can have the other bottle." " Don't you want it?" " No, take it." " Cool." "Thanks." "So, you want to row over?" "It's only 10:30." "Come on, you can me ether." " My English sucks." " I'll talk." "You just show your dick." "I can't leave Hanna alone in the tent." "Forget it, then." ""Sverige" (Sweden)." "Hi, do you have radiator hoses?" "I don't know how to change this." "I think it's leaking." "You want a new radiator hose..." "Oh..." "I shouldn't have eaten that pastry." " Wasn't it any good?" " Yes, but lwon't get my figure back." "No one will even know I've already had the baby." "A few more pounds will look great on you." "Really!" " You want to take the elevator?" " No, the stairs." "I need the exercise." "I've been thinking..." "I have one of those pension accounts with automatic deposits everymonth." "It's added up over the years." "And I thought, I want the baby to have it." "It's money I don'tneed." "Iwon't even notice ifit's gone." " No, it's your money." " And I'll do what I want with it." "And I want the baby to have it." " Do you need to rest?" "Are you OK?" " I'm fine." "A little tired." "I get along fine." "But when he grows up or she, and wants to go to college or buy a car, you'll need it!" "That money is for you." "So you can use it when you're retired." "So you can travel and things." "I'll be able to do that, I promise." "But I want to be with you." "It would really make me happy." "Now let's burn off that pastry." " Why not?" " The diesel guy is late." " So when will he be here?" " I don't know; he had engine trouble." "But we agreed..." "Can we work tomorrow?" "Of course!" "If you can." "Okay." "I'll be there at 9:30." "Make sure you're up!" "Shit!" "Jesus, you're beautiful!" "Do you knowyou're fuckin' gorgeous?" "Irina!" "Calm down, damn it!" "Calm down!" "Calm down, damn it!" "It's okay... it's okay..." "I'm sorry..." "I'm sorry, Irina, I didn'tmean..." "I didn't..." "Irina!" "I'm sorry..." "I'm sorry..." "I didn't..." "I didn't mean..." "Irina!" "Hi, honey!" "I just wanted to say good night." "See you tomorrow." "I miss you." "I love you." "Byel" "Thomas!" "Thomas!" "Oh, come on!" "Get it together!" "It's quarter to ten." "Are you hung over?" "Huh?" "Man, you look like shit!" "What did you do last night?" " We're not going to work today." " Why not?" "Dammit, Thomas, we agreed..." " I came here to work!" " We're not working!" " What the hell's your problem?" " Peeter is dead." "What?" " Peeter." "The Estonian." "He's dead." " What the hell are you talking about?" "He's dead!" "I went over there last night to talk a little..." " What..." " Some thing went wrong..." "Really wrong." "We were just drinking vodka, her and me." "He wasn't there." "Then when he came, he was insane." "What could I do?" "He jumped me." "I didn't know what was going on..." "I hadto defend myself!" "He had me bythe throat, he was nuts!" "What the hell was I supposed to do?" "Then he hit his head on a rock..." "He was at the pub with me!" " He never got up again..." " But he was... what about her?" " Jesus, Thomas!" "What about her?" "!" " She disappeared in the lake." "But... maybe he justpassed out." " Maybe she swam off." " I don't think so..." " Did you go check?" " No..." "There, you see?" "He passed out and she swam off somewhere." " Right?" "Let's go there and see." " Okay..." "She ought to be here by now." "If she'd been swimming..." "Someone ought to be here." "She drowned." "She must have drowned." "If... if... if itwas an accident..." "and self-defense and everything maybe you'll get off." " Howthe hell can I prove that?" " The cops can." "What if they can't?" " Oh, god, help me..." " HOW?" "I don'tknow..." "What if all this just disappeared?" "Does anyone know they were here?" "Okay..." "Then if we move all this some- where else, leave no traces here it might work." " Where?" " Somewhere no one will look!" "To the old quarry." "No one goes down that road." " I can't do it alone." " I'll help you, asshole!" "But you have to drive there alone." "Tonight." "Okay..." "It's going to be okay..." "We'll put him in the camper and clean like hell." "Come on." "Let's put him inside." " Hurry." "Come on!" " Shit!" "God damn..." "Damn it..." "Hold on to him now!" " Were you in here?" " Yeah." " Did you touch anything?" " I don't remember." "I'll have to wipe everything." "Go out and get everything." "We have to get rid of everything." " It's the police." "She's there." " No, she isn't." "They would have come here." "They wouldn't schedule an appointment!" "Maybe it's Nina." "Answer it!" "It might be Nina!" "You get it." " This isn't Thomas, Is it?" " No, it's Sigge." " Is Thomas on the roof?" " Yeah." "Do you want to talk to him?" "Yeah." "It's your father." " HII Already working?" " Yeah." "We have a lotto get done." " Do you want meto come help?" " No, you'd just be in the way." "Well, okay." "I heard you're going to visit Nlna this afternoon." " You want to go together?" " I don't know when I'm going." " Call me when you're ready." " I'll call you later." " I told you, they don't know." " Then she must be dead." "She'd better be, don't you think?" "Let's get to work, so everything looks normal." "Get dressed!" " Relax, dammit!" "No one is there!" " How the hell do you know that?" " There's no one there!" " What if someone finds her?" "Who?" "You're the only ones who live here." "The lake is 30 meters deep!" " Bodies float!" " Some, not all." "Why don't you call Olof?" "It's past five o'clock." "What time are we meeting tonight?" "One." "Bring gloves." "You feel it?" " Isn't it incredible?" " Yeah." "Let's go in." "What is it?" " You okay?" " It was just a contraction." " Are you done with the roof?" " Almost." " It'll never rain on us again." " I want to give Sigge a present." " Sure." " This looks good, doesn't it?" "You can do it when you put your mind to it." "Beautiful!" "Thanks, honey!" "I'm going to have a smoke, so you two can be alone." " What is it?" "Is something wrong?" " No, nothing." " Why?" " You seem so distant." "It's all this waiting." " There's nothing wrong, is there?" " Ow!" "Owowow!" "Should I go get someone?" " Hey, someone come here, now!" " Thomas!" "Looks like the contractions have started." "Nina..." "I don't want to do this..." "End of PART1" "The Confession PART2" "Hi, Sigge." "Sorry to bother you this late..." " That's okay." " Has Thomas called you?" " No..." " I think it will happen tonight." "Nina went into labor when I left." "She's in the delivery room now." " But nothing's happened yet?" " Not yet." "I just wanted to tell you." "I was in the neighborhood." "Cool." " You want to go grab a beer?" " Uh... no, I..." " I have a headache." "I'm going to bed." " We'll keep our fingers crossed." "Holy shit, eh, Sigge?" "Wow!" " Bye." " Bye." "Relax... relax..." "Not much longer now." "We're almost there." "I'll be rightback." "Everything is fine." "Blow on my face, please!" "God, I'm glad you're here, honey." " I have to go to the bathroom." " Hurry back." " This is Sigge." " I can'tmake it." "I have to stay." " We can't just leave it there!" " What the hell am I supposed to do?" "Can't you do it?" "Sigge, I can't leave Nina now!" " No, I know." " I'm losing my mind." "Can you do it?" " Sigge?" " How will I get home?" "I'll pick you up as soon as I can." "Sigge!" "Bring your cell phone." "Damn it!" " NO!" " One more time... push..." "Good!" "What a beautiful little boy!" "God damn it!" "Go on." "Come now!" "Come here!" "Into the car!" "He looks like you." "You don't see it?" " No." " He has your ears." " Andthe same nose." " No..." " I think we should call him Oscar." " Oscar..." "No?" "How about Peter?" "That's nice." " Is he asleep?" " Yeah." "Everything went perfectly." "You'll stay here tonight and change rooms in the morning." " Hello?" " It's me." "Where are you?" " Home." " Home?" "What the hell...?" "I ran out of gas after about 5 km." "Had to stop at a rest area." " That's where it is now." " Jesus!" "Where is that?" " Just before the gas station." " Before the gas station?" "What did you want me to do, call a towtruck?" " Did anyone see you?" " I don't think so." "I don'tknow." " I have to get back." "We had a boy!" " Congratulations." " So I'm an uncle." "How's Nina?" " She's fine." "We'll talk later." "Before the gas station..." "You've been up all night." "Carina can open the gas station for once." "We have a bunch of deliveries;" "we need two people." "I'll come later." " You need sleep." "Can you go in late?" " It'll work out." "I'll sleep tonight." "Hi, sweetie!" " I can't believe we're parents!" " Me either." "You rest, you need it." "I'll come by this afternoon." "Okay?" " Good bye." " Good bye." " It's me." "We had a boy." " Fantastic!" "What time?" " 1:30-9 pounds, 11 ounces." " That's almost like you." "You weighed 10 pounds, 12 ounces." "Howare they?" " They're fine." "Where are you?" " Working." "I really can't talk." " Does he have hair?" " A few strands." " Just like you!" "We'll go together." " Okay." "Bye." " What happened?" " I can't say." "10 pounds, 12 ounces!" "How about that!" " It's a boy!" "10 pounds, 12 ounces." " Congrats, gramps." "He has sand in his wounds." " What did your sister's boy weigh?" " I don'tknow." "10 pounds, 12 ounces... not bad!" "Look at this." " Wood ants." " That's right." "They're never indoors." "So he died outdoors." "So, how's it feel?" " Thomas had a boy!" "1:30 last night." " I heard." "I'm an uncle!" " Congratulations!" " Sigge, have a cigar." " Uh... can you help me outside?" " Sure." "The cops are there." "I just drove past them." " Dad must be there." " Yeah." "How the hell could it run out of gas?" "Cheap Estonian bastard!" "There can'tbe any evidence, can there?" "No one saw you move it?" " No one was out." "It was pouring." " And rain destroys evidence." " Andthey don't know where to look." " No." "Then it's okay, right?" "I can't do much more." "You can impound the vehicles now." "The car is out of gas." "Could be a coincidence." " What do you mean?" " The driver had to stop or else they decided to stop here." "Olof!" " Where'd you find those?" " The outer pocket of the bag." " She doesn't look very strong." " No, and he must weigh 180." "It's a heck of a job if she carried him in alone." " Thanks a lot." " Thank you!" "Hi!" "Can you check my wipers?" "They don't work right - must be made wrong." " Did you replace them yourself?" " Yes." "They're in backwards." "It happens." "Look at that." "Probably full of smuggled goods." "Damn Estonians!" " We found the deceased's father." " He wanted to come here." "I said no." " I told him you're doing a good job." " But what did he say?" "Peeter called his father once or twice a week." " The last time was Friday at 9:15." " From where?" "Apub here in town." "Friday night?" "Did he say where they were staying?" " By a pretty lake." " What lake?" "Did he say?" "No..."by a pretty lake outside of town."" "They always tried to find a place where they could be alone." "Can you type that up as soon as possible?" "No names?" " I don't think so... no." " Type that up." "They came... or at least got gas... on Wednesday, called the dad on Friday." "We don't know about Saturday..." "And he's found dead on Sunday." "If he went into town to call, they must have been close." "And they have to eat, so they must have shopped somewhere." "Start at the pub." "Thomas, what day were those Estonians here?" "Tuesday?" "They were here with their camper and got gas." "Do you recognize them?" "Yeah, they were here..." "Wednesday, lthink." " You showed them a map?" " It looked like a map." "They asked for the prettiest route south." "They were going to Ystad." " They said they were going there?" " No, I just realized that." "Did they say where they were camping?" " No." " Think now..." "Did they say anything that could help us?" "You know how we work." "No, we didn't talk much." "Their English was so bad." "Well..." "I guess that's all." "We should change the name." "Why "Linda's"when there is no Linda?" " We can say it's you." " "Berra's Bakery" is good." " Sounds like a bike repair shop." " Well, you think of something!" ""The Bread Factory."" ""The Bread Factory."That's good!" "Did you just come up with that?" " "Berra's Bread Factory"..." " Are you Sigge Olsson?" "You were at the Dragon Pub on Friday, right?" " Yeah..." " And talked to this man?" " Yes, I helped him call Estonia." " Do you know who he is?" " No." "I thinkhis name is Peeter." " Yeah, Peter Puusepp." "He was found dead in his camper." "What did you talk about?" "Nothing special..." " His English was bad, so not much." " Did he talk to anyone else there?" "No, I don't think so." "Not that I saw." " Could I borrow your pen?" " Sure." " Linda's Bakery?" " We're going to change the name." " Do you give these to customers?" " Sometimes." "Can I have your phone number in case we need to reach you?" " There." " Thanks." " Could I keep that?" " Absolutely, if you want it." "If you think of anything, you know where to find me." "And I can find you." "Yeah..." " It's too incomplete to be sure." " What are the chances they match?" "Maybe 50%." "But I wouldn't be too hasty." " Call again." " He isn't answering!" "Then go in and get him or let's get out of here!" " Congratulations on your son!" " Thanks." "Have you seen dad?" " He was in his office a minute ago." " Thanks." " Hi, Thomas!" " Hi." "I wanted to take a shower before I met my grandson." "How are you?" " So he was murdered?" " Or killed accidentally." "We still have to investigate." " Sigge, how's Hanna these days?" " Uh... she's fine." "She's getting big." " Is she starting school this fall?" " No, she'll be in second grade." " Well, I'll be damned!" "How time flies." "Thomas, imagine when your boy is that big!" "He'll probably have a brother or sister by then." "Look who's here!" "It's grand pa and Uncle Sigge!" " Who does he look like?" " Me, of course!" " Mostly Thomas." "Around the ears." " Yeah, I see that." "Oh, Thomas, he's so cute!" "He does look like you." "Here's grandpa!" " Be careful of his navel!" " Let me take a picture." "Smile!" "That's it, smile!" "You look beautiful, Nina!" "Can you take him?" "I have to go to the bathroom." " How do you feel?" " Okay." " I just haven't slept enough." " You can sleep here." " I want to sleep at home." " Take two Alka-Seltzer and rest." "I'll call you tomorrow, okay?" " Good bye." " Good bye." "Good bye!" " Are you okay to drive?" " Yeah, no problem." "See you tomorrow." "What is it?" " The Estonians took a picture ofme." " Why the hell didn't you tell me?" "I just remembered when Dad took our picture." "What are we going to do?" "I have to find that camera!" "I have to get the camera." " I'm going to break in tonight." " Are you crazy?" "If there were pictures ofyou, you wouldn't be here!" " Maybe the film is in the camera." " They'd look for film in the camera." " It only takes an hour to develop!" " He took pictures of me and Irina." "The camera was some Estonian shit." "It probably didn't turn out." "Relax!" " Relax...?" " You heard Olof, they're stumped." "They don'thave any evidence." "Drop it." "I'm not saying he did it." "Olof!" "You're not listening!" "You suspect him, that's bad enough!" "I've known Sigge for ten years!" "But if the pen was found near Puusepp's car with Sigge's prints  shouldn'the be allowed to explain how it got there?" "You don't even know if they are his prints!" "You're defending him because you know him!" "He has a record!" "One theft eight years ago." " So what should we do?" " Nothing." "Welcome home." " The roof is done!" " Almost." "There's a little left." "It's beautiful!" "You must have worked every evening!" "Huh?" "Hell, yes!" "You've been working so hard while I've been pampered!" "Oh, Sigge!" "It's adorable!" "Thank you!" "It's a little big, but that doesn't matter." "Here comes grandpa!" " What do you think of the roof?" " Great!" "Thanks for all your help!" " Hi!" "Welcome home!" "A little gift." " Oh, thank you!" " Where's my grandson?" "There he is!" " Go to grandpa now." " Come to grandpa!" " Did you pee on your old dad?" "Go back to dad now, so you don't pee on me." " You get to change him." " How do I do that?" " Come on, I'll show you." " Look, I'm allwet!" " You'll dry." "Well, I... guess I'll go have a smoke." "Uh..." "Sigge..." "There's something I..." "need to ask you." "More as a friend than... as..." "The rest area on the highway..." "Have you been there recently?" " I mean, stopped there." " Why do you ask?" "I know it sounds serious, considering what's happened, but have you?" " I drive by it almost every day." " That's why I'm asking." " When were you there last?" " Wednesday." "Or Tuesday." "I had to stop because... some crates had fallen down in the back." "I had to jam on the brakes when a cat ran out in front of me." " Why do you ask?" " No reason." "Can you close the window?" "He'll get a chill." "I've been thinking..." "That business with the... camper... is scary." " It's just a couple ofmiles away." " Yeah." " Would you like some tea?" " If you do." "What does Olof say?" "He can't talk about it." "Do you want crackers with it?" " I hope they get the guy who did it." " Don't think about it." "What if he's still nearby?" "The guy who did it." " Don'tt hink about it." " Maybe he lives here!" " Do you want a cracker?" " With cheese, please." " What kind of tea do you want?" " Camomile with honey." "Hi, daddy." "I don't forget to call when Nina has her baby." "Bye!" " Hi, Sigge!" " Hi." " You pierced your nose!" " Isn't it cool?" " Hi, Sigge!" " Hi..." " I'd like to talk with you." " About what?" "Let's go siting my car." " Are you nervous?" " No." " I'm in a hurry." "I have work to do." " Me too." "You gave me this yesterday." "We found another one at the rest area by the Estonian car." " What can I say?" " That someone dropped it there?" " I guess someone dropped it there." " The fingerprint on it is disturbingly similar to your thumbprint." "What do you say now?" " Are you the one who dropped it?" " Maybe." "Last Wednesday." " So you were there on Wednesday." " Yes, I alreadyt old Olof." "Oh?" "Would you mind telling me, too?" "Well, a cat ran across the road, and I had to jam on the brakes and some... shelves in the back fell over." "I had to pull over." " A cat?" " Yes." "Where did you stop?" "On this side of the trash bin, or past it?" "This side." "Do you think that's the right answer?" " You haven't been there since?" " No." " And of course no one saw you stop." " No." "Okay, then, Sigge." "You have work to do." " Was it black?" " What?" "The cat." "Was it black?" " All the bitch has is a fucking pen!" " With my thumbprint." "That doesn't prove shit." "They don't have a thing." "Like hell they don't!" "First Olof, and then her staking out my apartment!" " Maybe it wasn'ther." " She's following me!" "It's freaky!" "Forgether." "If they had anything concrete, they'd bring it up." "Dammit, Sigge, I know how they work." "They're guessing, that's all!" " Why the hell did I move that car?" " Don't think that way!" "I have to go." "Excuse me, do you have a restroom we can use?" "There's no motive!" "And I know Sigge!" "We never knowpeople 100%." "And he was nervous - as if he were lying." "Bullshit!" "You make everyone nervous!" "Sigge Olsson is the only person we know talked to Peeter Puusepp." "What's illegal about that?" "Thomas talked to him at the gas station." " Do you suspect him, too?" " No, they didn'thave a campsite yet." "He could have told Sigge where they were staying, invited him over." " They left separately." " He could have gone later." " The motive?" " Money." "He's stolen before." "Eight years ago!" "If you want money, you don't attack Estonians!" "He ought to have left a fingerprint somewhere in the camper." " Maybe he did and we missed it." " Talk to Nilsson about that!" " Have you got a better idea?" " No, but I haven't got a worse one!" " I want more juice." " Go get some, then." " Don't make it too concentrated!" " I know." " I don't smoke indoors anymore." " Good." "In two weeks a circus is coming to town." "I thought we could take Hanna there together." " Do you want to?" " Yeah." "Hanna would be thrilled." "Maybe we could make dinner together before hand." "If you want?" "Absolutely." "I'd love to." " Have you told Hanna?" " No, I wanted to ask you first." " Are you talking about me?" " No, why?" " I thought I heard "Hanna."" " We said Hanna is a juice monster." " I'll go pack your bag." " I put out 3 books I want to bring." "You think I can get the whole roll in?" "Think so?" " This is Sigge." " It's me." "There's an RV on the beach." " In the same place?" " Yeah!" "Mustbe those Germans." " What are they doing?" " Eating." "But they put out a raft." " Run them off." " It's not private land." "They don't know that." "I can't talk too much, I have Hanna here." "Maybe it's a good thing." "They'll ruin any traces of the Estonians." " What if they find her?" " Is that mommy?" " I'll talk to you tomorrow." "Bye." " Shit!" "Yuck!" " Hey, are you back already?" " Weren't you fishing?" " Motor trouble." " Looks pretty." " You think?" "I don't know..." "I'm so fat!" "I can't get the zipper up!" "I'll have to buy a new dress for the christening." "What do you think?" " What?" " Am I too grotesquely fat for this?" "Okay, I get it." "Fat!" " I love you." "Do you love me?" " You know I do." " Are you sure?" " Yeah." " Is anything wrong?" " We can't stay - it's private." "That's bullshit!" "Max, come now!" "We've already packed, it's time to go!" "No, he's not here yet." "Wait, I think that's him." "Thomas, it's Nina." "It sounds important." "They found a deadwoman in the lake!" " What?" "When?" " A little bit ago." "I can see them." "Mustbe those Germans." "Come home" " I don't want to be alone!" "I can't leave now, maybe later." " Please hurry!" " I'll try." "I have to go now." "Okay?" "Good bye." " Hi." "Brief me." " German campers." "In the car." "One of them saw a body while snorkeling." " And it's Irina Puusepp?" " We think so." "So this is where she was..." " When did the Germans get here?" " Yesterday." " You think the camper was here?" " Maybe." "But Thomas should have seen it." "He lives on the other side." " Maybe he saw it, if not them." " I'll askhim." " Maybe I should do it." " No, I'm going there tonight anyway." " Where'd you find that?" " I stepped on a glass out there." "He's laughing again!" "We've been working on the roof everynight." "We would have seen it." "Maybe you heard something?" "You know sound carries over water." "I'd have heard a fart over there." " Andwe put out nets last week." " When was that?" " Wednesday, right?" " Yeah, I pulled it up on Thursday." " You worked late." " Right." " Did you see the beach from there?" " We did on Wednesday." "Yeah, and Thursday." "I always look." "I don't like people being there." " Why do you think that's the place?" " That's confidential." " Maybe they came on Friday?" " No, that doesn't fit." " Are you staying for dinner, Olof?" " Sorry, I have to get back." " Were you ever that small?" " Everyone was." "Don't you know?" "You're so cute!" "But I'll be at the church tomorrow." "They found her at 11:30 a.m." "She was on the bottom, about 50 yards out." "She drowned or was drowned." "Her body shows signs of violence." "Some clothes are missing." "Her top is torn, we found a skirt in the lake." " Sexualviolence?" " No traces of sperm, but possibly." "The way she looks, I'd say it was an attempted rape." " It does look that way." " Are we done searching the site?" " We're done." " I think we should keep looking." "Then let's do that." "If need be, we'll work Saturday and Sunday." "My grandson's baptism is tomorrow at 12 but I'll work before and after." "Okay, let's getto work." "Hi!" "Are you spending the night?" " This necklace wasn't found, was it?" " No." "And it's not on the body, see?" "But she's wearing it everywhere else." "Maybe it snagged in the lake." " Or it was torn off." " I'm not here!" "Bye!" " Marit's telephone, Ljungberg." " It's... about the camper murder..." "I have some material that might be of interest to you." " What kind of material?" " Can I bring it over tomorrow?" " Just come on up." " Could we meet on neutral ground?" "How about Chiefland?" " Okay." "What time?" " Eleven o'clock." " The diner at 11:00." "Your name?" " We'll recognize each other." "Can you help me with my zipper?" "Hey!" " I love your breasts." " That's the milk." "They'll shrink." " We'll have to have more, then." " Thanks, one is enough for now." "Thomas...?" "The zipper." "We're in a hurry!" " Thanks." " Welcome." " Am I pretty?" " Yeah." "Beautiful." " I like the matching ribbons." " I picked them." " Am I fat?" " What?" "Who said that?" " A girl at school." " Honey, don't listen to that crap." " You are just right!" " Are you sure?" "...then there's a little water." " Yeah, yeah..." "Can I sit up front?" "Okay." "I'll put the present in the back seat then." "Put your seatbelt on now." "You the cop?" "Nice tie." "You always workin a suit?" " My grandson's baptism is in an hour." " Then we'll get to the point." "I don't knowif this is important, but..." "I have a boy who just turned 12." "He wanted a camera, so I bought one on the street." "I wanted to make sure it worked, so I thought I'd shoot a roll." "There was half a roll in the camera." "I finished the roll and had it developed." "I took out my own pictures." "Who did you buy the camera from?" "No idea." "Never saw him before." "It is that Estonian couple, isn't it?" "Yeah..." "Where did you buy the camera?" "Look, I came here to help." "You cops haven't always treated me so good." "What do you think?" "Can you use it?" "I don't expect to get paid." "Well, I did pay $11 for developing." "We could say an even $10." "Well, do you have any leads?" "Okay..." "ls it a boy or a girl?" "Okay, private question." "Bye." " Howare you?" " Just great, really!" " Have you seen dad?" " He wouldn't miss this, would he?" "End of PART2" "The Confession PART3" "Hi!" " Hi, Hanna!" "Don't you look pretty!" "You too!" " How are you?" " Just great, really!" " Have you seen dad?" " He wouldn't miss this, would he?" "We have to start atten after." "I have another baptism at 12.30." "He's never late!" "No..." "He's turned it off." "There!" "Here he comes!" "Hi!" " Sorry I'm late; something came up." " We were concerned." "Let's start." "The family is all together." "Jens Olof Kevin..." "I christen thee..." "In the name of the Father and the Son and of the Holy Spirit." "Congratulations!" "It was so beautiful!" " And the weather!" "What luck!" " Can we take my car, I want to talk." " I was going to drive Nina..." " Ask Sigge." " Come with us." " I want to talkin private." "You're all welcome to come over at 1:00 for coffee." "Thank you." "I was thinking of adding a cafeé to the gas station." "No warm dishes, but snacks." "Bigger gas stations have them." "We'll have to hire someone, but I think it's worth it." "You said you wanted to talk, say something!" "I met a man at the diner today." "He called yesterday to arrange it." " That's why I was late." " You don't have to feel guilty." "I don't feel guilty." "Why are you going this way?" "We have guests coming!" "What is this?" "I have guests to greet!" "Why did you lie to me?" "Why didn't you tell me the truth?" "You were here with them!" "What the hell are you talking about?" "Take me home now!" "What happened?" "Tell me everything." "Thomas..." "I'm your father." "Look at me." "I said look at me!" "What happened?" "It wasn't my fault... it was an accident..." "I just struck back..." "I was defending myself!" "He hit his head on a rock." " How could I know she was alone?" " Did you sleep with her?" " How the hell can you ask that?" " Because her clothes were torn!" " Did you?" " I didn'ttouch her!" "Why didn'tyou callthe police?" "You could have called me!" "I was so damn scared..." "I didn't dare." "I just went home." "I was so goddamn scared." "Afraid of losing Nina, and Jens was about to be born..." "Can't you see?" " Oh, God, what have I done?" " It's going to be okay, son..." "Sigge is involved, too." "Sigge!" " Sigge..." " Yeah?" " Where was that Estonian woman?" " I don'tknow." "Poor thing!" "What on earth were they doing here?" " There they are!" "Where did you disappear to?" "Did you get lost?" " No, we went to my place." " Thomas, come now!" "Took you long enough!" "I want to take the picture of the year!" "Why don'twe stand here..." " Nina, good!" "Come here!" "We can be over here, so we don't have that ugly scaffold." "Finally!" "A little closer together, and look happy!" "Don't look so tormented." "You look good in pictures." "Look, Jens!" "Look!" "Congratulations!" " Back already?" "Pictures of the baby?" " Yeah, and some other stuff." " Can I see?" " No, they're not very..." "We'll get some enlargements." "Guess what I found out while you were at the church?" "That Sigge Olsson lef this apartment from 1:00-4:00 Sunday morning." " Aha... wh-who said that?" " A neighbor." "Guy who has nothing better to do than keep track of others." "The question is, whatwas Sigge doing between 1:00 and 3:30?" "Only he can answer that." "We know that's when the camper was parked there." " That doesn't mean he did it." " No, but the timing is perfect." " What if the neighbor is lying?" " Why would he lie about that?" " Lots of reasons." "What do we know?" " Nothing." "But I think he's telling the truth and Sigge is lying." "I do, Olof." " Weren't you going to carry that in?" " Yeah, I'm just relaxing." " Tired?" " No..." "Or is it something else?" "You're sure?" "You know you can tell me." "Will you bring that stuff in later?" "Remember, last week he was sick like this, too." "At the hospital." "I got dizzy." "I don't get enough sleep." "Iwas up half the night." "Can't you go to the clinic tomorrow and make sure nothing is wrong?" " Olof, make sure he goes tomorrow." " Sure." " You look tired, too." " I am." "It's hard work having guests." "I haven't slept either." "I have feedings every other hour." " Are you happy we named him Olof?" " Yes, and proud." "Thanks for coming." "I know you have a lotto do." "I'd better getback so you can sleep." "Thomas, ifyou need anything..." "well... you know." "You know I had to call him." "I was scared out of my wits." "Do you feel better now?" "Sometimes I think how lonely he must be." "Don'tyou?" " We're all he has." " Yeah..." "I don't know where this is taking me, but..." "I've decided to do everything to keep you out of this." "You're all I have..." "You and Nina and Jens..." "I love you." "I can't do otherwise." " What about Sigge?" " I'll talk to him." "It happened exactly the way I said." "We don't have to talk about it anymore." "We won't." " The DA granted the warrant." " Great." "Let's go." " You know anything about fish?" " They have too many bones." " Aquarium fish!" " What, they don't have bones?" "No, they're born as filets." "Didn't you know?" "That's the great thing about working with you." "I learn so much." "But I have to do everything myself." "Have you done the kitchen?" "Will you feel better if I give you some vodka?" "That's it!" "We've got the bastard!" " Sigge." " It's Olof." "I have to talk to you." " Where are you?" " I'm on the road." "What is it?" " Don't worry." "When do you get In?" " About 10:30." "What is it?" "Don't worry." "See you at 10:30." " Olof, go pick up Sigge Olsson." " Why on earth would I do that?" " Marit found evidence against him." " Like what?" " He was out from 1:00-3:30 Sunday..." " So we should bring him in?" "Combined with other evidence we have, yes." "I know you disagree." " But the DA agrees." " You're not going to arrest him?" "We're just going to search his house." "Officer Thorn is waiting." " So he's an owner now?" " Since last week." "Is that a time to kill someone?" " Here he comes!" " Let me." "We can be a little discreet." "I have to talk to you, Sigge." "Now!" "Thomas told me everything." "I know you moved the camper." "Only Thomas, you and I know." "And I'm going to keep it thatway." "Do you understand?" "Can I trust you?" "Sigge, can I trust you to keep quiet?" "I'm going to protect my family." "And you." "So we have to trust each other." " Can I trust you?" " You can trust me." "The DA made a decision I can't control, so come with me." "It wasn'tme!" "It was Marit." "She knows you were out Sundaymorning." "They're going through your house now." "Will they find anything?" " What do I do now?" " Come up with an alibi." " What the hell should I say?" " What's taking so long?" "We're coming." "We're coming." "OK?" "Come on." " You left home from 1:00-3:30." " Yeah." " Yes?" "So you were out?" " Yeah, I got a flat tire." "My sister was having her baby, but on the waythere I got a flat." " Aha, a flat tire..." " So I changed it and went home." "But weren't you going to visit your sister?" "Yes." "But the lug nuts were rusted and it took forever and I was drenched." " So I went home." " An odd time to visit a patient." "She's my sister!" "Thomas called and said it was time, so I went." "So Thomas called in the middle of the night to tell you?" " What time did he call?" " Around twelve, I guess." "And you were prepared to drive 90 km in the pouring rain." "Then you got a flat, changed the tire and decided to go all the wayhome?" " Yes, it was freezing." " What time did you get home?" "Didn't my neighbor tell you?" "Yes, but I'm asking you." "I don't know. 3:00-3:30?" "Can you prove you were on that road at all?" "There weren't many people out." "But someone might have seen me." "Let's take a break." "Just say that you called and told him." "What time?" "Then say you called again to say it was a boy." " You coming for lunch?" " Uh... sure, when?" " Now." "Chinese." " Okay." "Has Sigge gotten anything?" "I'm sure he'll be fine." "I have to go talk to Sigge now." "Okay." "Bye." "Bye." " Took you long enough to feed him." " Yeah, I had to buy him some food." " Is that edible?" " Yeah." " Hi." "Are you leaving?" " No, I just gothere." " Can I take this?" " Sure." " How's it going?" " Fine." "I just got a call from someone who saw the camper at the rest area." " What time?" " 3:00." " We already knew that." " Yes, bu the said something else." "Next to it was a motorcycle." "Agreen Kawasaki 600." " But there was no driver." " Is that so strange?" "They're expensive." "You don't leave them out in the rain." " Should I look into it?" " A motorcyclist taking a leak?" " Maybe he was inside the camper." " Or taking shelter in the woods." " He might have seen something." " Go ahead." "I'm sticking with Sigge." " Should I look into it?" " Yes, do." " He might have been in the camper." " Exactly!" "I don't believe you." "And I'll prove it." "In five minutes, you'll be begging for mercy." " How was lunch?" " Fine." "Great!" "Thanks!" " Do you drink vodka?" " On occasion." " Russian vodka?" " Great." "Thanks." " What's that?" "Do you recognize this bottle?" "We found it in your liquor cabinet." "Explain how it got there with Peeter Puusepp's fingerprints all over it." "Okay, Sigge?" " I... bought it... from Peeter." " You don't say!" "At the pub, he asked me if I wanted to buy some vodka." "So we went outto his car and he pulled it out." "He wanted 100 crowns, so I gave it to him." " Did you go to the camper together?" " No." "I put the bottle in my car and went back into the pub." " Why the hell didn'tyou say so?" " I was scared!" "I didn't want to get caught for buying bootleg alcohol." "You have a strange way of cooperating!" "The prints weren't identified until now." "Why are you so pissed?" "I need to be informed!" "You're not investigating this alone!" "Maybe I should be!" "You're working against me, protecting Sigge!" "I think he's innocent!" "Is Thomas at work?" "Marit Stenberg." "I have some questions." "Okay, shoot." "Did you call Sigge when your wife was in labor?" " Yes, I did." " What time was that?" "Around... after twelve." "Maybe 12:30." "Why did you call at that hour?" "They said it was time." "It hought her brother should bethere." " Did he say he'd come?" " Yes." " But he didn't come?" " No, he got a flat." " How did you find that out?" " I called him around four." " I called to say he was an uncle." " I have no further questions." "So, what's up?" "That bottle could have ruined us." " I forgot I had it." "It was a mistake." " We can't afford anymore mistakes!" "No more surprises." "Is there anything else I should know?" " Marit Stenberg..." " She's dangerous!" "She's unpredictable." "I've learned never to underestimate her." "But she doesn't have any evidence." "Quit with the lighter!" " Yoohoo!" " In here." " Hi!" " Hi." " Is he asleep?" " Yeah." "Um..." "I found this in your jeans pocket." "Whose is it?" " The blue ones?" " Yeah, when I was doing the laundry." "Oh, yeah." "I forgot." "It was on the ground by the diesel pump." " No one came looking for it?" " No." "Do you want it?" "Someone wants it back!" "Hang up a sign, someone will come for it." "Can't you take down that damned scaffold?" "I can't stand seeing it." "I'll take care of it." "You lying bastard!" "You took the bottle out of the camper." "Didn't you?" "The same night you killed Peeter!" "You killed him by the lake." "Why did you do it, Sigge?" "Was it for money?" "Or did you know there was a woman there?" "Did he show you a picture?" "And you got hot." "She was pretty, wasn't she?" "Did you go to rape her?" "Was itl ike you imagined?" "Did she fightback?" " It wasn't me!" " It was you!" "Only it didn't go like you planned." "It ended in a double murder." "It was Thomas!" "I only drove the camper." "He was there on Friday." "He took me there on Saturday and he was dead!" " What abouther?" " He said she swam away." " She was raped, Sigge!" " I just moved the camper!" "Get up." "Come here." "Olof knows." "Olof?" "Marit's car was parked outside Sigge Olsson's home." "We'll have to find out if that is related to the accident." " Did she tell any of you her plans?" " No." "Olof, talk to Sigge Olsson." "Thorn, talk to the bus driver." "He couldn't talk to us last night." " What do the doctors say?" " They don't know if she'll make it." "No, he's not at home or at work." "Thomas, listen." "If you hear from him, call me immediately." "Okay?" "Bye." " Did you find him?" " No." "Aneighbor saw them leave the house." "Why the hell was she there?" "There are 11 green Kawasaki 600s in the county." "2 here, and one of the owners is in Spain." "I'm meeting the other today." "I've been thinking." "I think there were two people on the bike." "They rob the Estonians and kill Peeter." "She flees into the lake." "They move the camper to confuse investigators." "Maybe..." " But moving it is a big risk." " They're over ambitious." "Cold-blooded." "When the witness saw the bike, they were nearby." "Yes?" "Yes..." "Where are you?" "Wait there." "I'm on myway." " That was Sigge." " What happened?" " She was there when I gothome." " What did she want?" " She told me to go with her." " Go where?" " I don'tknow." "Did you talk?" " You didn't tell her?" " No, ofc ourse not." "She didn't knowanything, either." "She pulled a gun on me!" "Then she said, "We're going for a ride."" " She was nuts!" " Butyou didn't talk?" "When we got outside, I pushed her and ran like hell." " Is it serious?" " She's in a coma." "It's critical." "They don't know if she'll wake up." "Jesus, Sigge..." "What's going on here?" "What have we gotten ourselves into?" "You go back now." "I'll take care of this." " I had to drive yesterday." " I'm here now." "What the hell is going on?" "The police are here all the time." " That's not my fault!" " We'll talk later." "Jesus!" "Calm down, for God's sake!" " County hospital." " Intensive care, please." "Can you tell me how Marit Stenberg, the police officer, is doing?" " Are you a relative?" " No... a friend." " We can't revealany Information." " Is she awake?" "This is totally fucked up." "Completely unacceptable." "Does anyone else know?" "Then let's keep it under wraps." "Olsson has a right to make a report, but could you get him to wait?" "I'll talk to him." "Never lift a patient by yourself." "You can hurt your back." "Excuse me." "My cousin, Marit Stenberg, is here." "I have flowers for her." "I'll take them." " Is she awake?" " No." " Can I go in?" " No, she's being prepped for surgery." "Will she wake up again?" "I mean, be okay?" "We won't know before the operation." " Can I call and ask how it went?" " Of course." " Can you call me?" " It's not our policy." " I really, really want to know." " I'll try." "Good." "Thanks." "This is the one." "Just pour it in." "You want me to help you?" " Yes, please." " I'll be right with you." "Sigge, can you help me take down the scaffold tonight?" " Okay." " Cool." "See you." "Estonian woman found dead" "Hi, Carina, it's Nina." "Is Thomas there?" "Okay." "I'll call backlater." "Bye." "We're getting flowers for Marit." "You in?" "Of course!" " How is she?" "Have you heard?" " Apparently the operation went well." "But who knows what that means?" " Ljungberg." " Olof, it's Nina." "You have to come!" " What's wrong?" " I need to talk to you." "Please!" " You're sure it looked like this?" " Positive." "Or not... yes, that's it." " What does Thomas say?" " I can't get hold of him." "He was meeting with suppliers or something." "Should I call again?" " What?" " Should I call Thomas again?" "Maybe I'm blowing this out of proportion." "Maybe I'm paranoid." "But..." "I see that picture and of course I'm shocked by that neclace." "And then there's the house and Jens and Thomas and..." "I don'tknow." "I'm probably imagining things." "I'm sorry." "You look so tired!" " I shouldn't have made you come out." " Nina..." "I think I did something really stupid." "What?" "Hang on a sec." "Hi, sweetie." "Hi!" "Look who's here..." "Grandpa is here!" "Say hi to grandpa." "Hi!" "What were you saying?" "Nothing." "I'll talk to Thomas." "Good bye." "Good bye." "Grandpa went away." "Bye-bye." " Olof!" "What happened?" " She locked herself out." " I think we solved the Estonian case." " Yeah?" "The Kawasaki guy was killed in a traffic accident last night." "The Estonians' passports were in his apartment." "Apparently he sold them." "We'll never know, but apparently he went too far this time." " Is this him?" " What?" "You recognize him?" "No..." "Then the case is closed." "There's nothing more we can do." "Good work." "Thanks." "How is my cousin, Marit?" " She was operated on this morning." " Did the operation go well?" " I can't say until she wakes up." " When will that be?" " No one knows." "I'II call you." " Yeah... promise me you will." " I promise." " Thanks." "What's with you?" "Come on!" " She said she was raped." " Who the hell said that?" " Marit said that Irina was raped." " Thatb itch is nuts." "You don't believe that bitch, do you?" "Why would she lie about it?" "You think I raped her?" "Jesus, Sigge!" "She's lying!" "You know that!" "We have to stick together!" "You bastard, you did it, didn't you?" "She asked me to come over." "I didn't rape her!" "Well, then, go to hell!" "You don't have to worry anymore." "A guy was in the camper after you left." "He's dead and they're convinced he did it." "Now they'll leave you alone, Sigge." " What is it?" " Sigge!" " What's with him?" " I don't know." "Can we use your car?" " This is Sigge." " Nurse Ellen." "Your cousin is awake!" "What?" "What?" "She's asleep now, but she's out of anasthesla." " Isn't that great?" " Has she said anything?" "Has she spoken?" "Has she said anything?" "No... she's very tired." "But you must be glad she's out of it?" "Sigge!" "Car trouble?" "She's awake." "Marit is awake." "She knows everything." " What are you saying?" " She knows everything." " What the hell are you saying?" " She threatened to kill me!" " You told?" " She said she'd shoot me!" "You didn't tell her about me, did you?" "Did you?" "!" "Son of a bitch!" "Are you going to kill him, too?" "And Marit when she wakes up?" "Nina is suspicious." "Are you going to kill her, too?" " What are you talking about?" " It's over!" "What the hell are you saying, you bastard?" "!" "Go ahead, betray me again!" "Betray me!" "You'll never see me again!" "Bastard!" "Hi, it's Sigge." "I'm not home right now, so leave a message." "Hi, it's Jenny." "I bought circus tickets." "We have great seats." "Hanna is thrilled, and I'm looking forwardto it." "Give me a call so we can decide when to meet." "Bye!" "Thomas?" "What are you doing?" "What is it?" "Help mig, Nina... help me." "I'm going to tell." "Come in." "Have a seat." "Yes?" " Hi." "Have you got a minute?" " Sure." "Hi." " Have a seat." "Coffee?" " No thanks." " I'm sorry, Sigge." "You can report..." " The Estonians..." "The Puusepps..." " It's solved." " What?" "It's solved." "It's all written down here." "Excuse me." "Eneman." "Yes." "I see." "Yeah." "Thanks." "Marit just died." "That was the hospital." "It's all in the letter." "We'd like you to read it." "We'll be in my office." "Olof..." "What's going on?" "We'll be waiting in there." "What happens now?" "With Jens and everything?" "Howthe hell should I know?" "I'm sorry, Nina." "I'm sorry."
