Australian Police Superintendent Adam Andersen is transferred to Norway to arrest a serial killer who is using the methods of previous murderers to commit his crimes Who is the Copy Cat serial killer? Superintendent Adam Andersen fresh from his success in arresting a killer in Sydney leads the National Norwegian Police Crime Authority (Kripos) Team in Oslo to track down a serial killer murdering young female police officers. Each crime is committed using the same method of famous serial killers of the past. Is the killer mocking police procedure or trying to discredit Superintendent Andersen? Is the killer a hardened criminal with a deep hatred of the police? Or, someone from within the ranks of the police force itself? Interlinked with the narratives of the murders are accounts of sports events (swimming, cycling, kayaking, running, triathlons) that add another dimension to the tale. Each character has their own story to unfold as the tale progresses. Relationships are confusing, sex is sometimes seen as an end in itself. Trust is hard to gain and easy to lose. The murders take place across Norway and Sweden over a period of almost twelve months until finally, Superintendent Adam Andersen closes the trap and catches the killer.
