Death in the DMZ

1976. The Korean Demilitarised Zone. The most dangerous border on Earth just became a crime scene.

As the world holds its breath during the suffocating summer heat of a nuclear crisis, a young woman is executed with surgical precision in the absolute darkness of the border region. Detective Park, a cynical homicide investigator from the South with a penchant for cheap cigarettes and forbidden questions, is called to the scene. The victim is quickly identified as a young clerk from Seoul, but what she was doing in the heavily mined No Man's Land is a mystery.
The case takes a heart-stopping turn when, hidden beneath the body, Park discovers a crying baby, surviving against all odds.

Forced into an uneasy alliance with Officer Ri, an ice-cold commando from the North, Park must navigate a deadly labyrinth of military coverups and Cold War corruption. Together, they uncover a ruthless, secret pipeline trafficking innocent human lives behind the mask of political conflict.
I
n a powder keg where a single stray bullet could ignite a world war, Park and Ri soon realise that the greatest threat isn't the army across the line; it’s the truth buried beneath it.
