⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Dan Brown on steroids…”

Countdown is an award‑winning, high‑octane Nordic conspiracy thriller about three lives caught in a race against a thousand‑year‑old secret.

A journalist, a radiation expert, and a librarian are running out of time.

If they fail, millions will die when the countdown reaches zero.

Kurt Østergaard never got to say goodbye.

The man who raised him died protecting a secret — and now it’s hunting Kurt.

Søren Storm should be home with his pregnant girlfriend, arguing about baby names.

Instead, he’s hunting a killer who leaves radioactive fingerprints and bodies burned beyond recognition.

Birgitte Holm grew up believing her father was a hero.

Until she finds the photograph that proves he was lying.

Now she’s asking questions powerful people will kill to keep buried.

Beneath Denmark’s oldest church, archaeologists unseal a chamber hidden for a thousand years.

Inside: a stone that has been counting down for centuries.

The inscriptions speak of Ragnarök — and the end of the modern world.

THREE LIVES. ONE CONSPIRACY. A CLOCK THAT CANNOT BE STOPPED.

Perfect for fans of Dan Brown, Tom Clancy, Brad Thor, and Stieg Larsson.
