When I get home, the house in Kongleveien seems to tower there upon its slope. It’s cloudy, almost dark outside. There’s a police car in the drive, and in the garden I see a police officer bent over, her backside in the air. The sound of my footsteps on the gravel reaches her, and when she turns I see that it’s Fredly, the red-haired northerner who accompanied Gundersen at our first conversation in my office. I wave to her, and she waves back.

In the kitchen I realise how tired I am. I have barely slept since 2.45 this morning. Now that I think about it, I’ve slept poorly ever since Sigurd disappeared. I feel unsafe in my own house. How am I supposed to sleep?

But with the police car in the drive, with Fredly in the garden, I’m safe. I walk up the stairs as if in a trance, drift into the bedroom and sink onto my bed. On Sigurd’s side.
