Assassinated former leader of the Norwegian Resistance and former cabinet minister Harald Olesen. His body was found in a locked apartment, there are no signs of forced entry, and there is no murder weapon. At the sound of the shot, all the neighbors ran to Olesen's door, but they did not see anyone. Criminal Investigation Inspector Kolbjorn Christiansen believes that one of them most likely committed the murder. Moreover, he believes that their testimony is false. "Critics literally lined up with laudatory reviews and rave reviews about the novel and the author himself, who is also a historian, politician and chess player. We can only wait for the continuation and new meetings with wonderful characters." Guardian Fragment: "The late Harald Olesen settled in the house even before the war. He, the minister, was considered one of the most famous residents of the quarter; his neighbors were proud of him. In recent years, he led a quiet life of a pensioner. He was visited by many famous politicians and former resistance fighters, however, according to fr Hansen, "he had few guests lately. His wife died five years ago; relatives visited him quite rarely. According to the caretaker's wife, it was difficult for him to come to terms with his position as a widower, although he did not show it.

Very politely asked to wash the laundry or clean the apartment and generously paid for such additional services. him and other residents. According to her, it is impossible to imagine who needed to kill such a respectable person - a real pillar of society. "
