Uniforma – Rydahl Thomas (2024)

Uniform' is the first book in the crime series 'Copenhagen Night' by author Thomas Rydahl. It is a detective novel about many souls living under one night sky, who often do not meet and do not wish to meet. But above all, it is a raw and surprising detective story in the style of classic Scandinavian tradition – with strong central characters. Salma is a student who sees the world around her in dark colors. Young people are violent, older ones cynical, and even her family is falling apart after the death of her younger sister. Life in Copenhagen is generally becoming increasingly unbearable. However, when her friend is attacked, Salma finds a meaningful life path. She strives to be accepted into the police academy and wants to get to the bottom of the case. No matter the cost. The second main character is so different from Salma that it hardly seems possible. Fuzzy is a hardened criminal, a beekeeper, and a father of two children. He plans to run away from everything, but when he finds a counterfeit banknote during a robbery, it turns his life upside down. He must uncover the perpetrator, even if it costs him his life.
