Afternoon Reading - Danish Noir - Last Train to Helsingor

In 'Last Train to Helsingor' Henrik Borg has done well for himself; he drive a Mercedes to and from work though prefers the train from Copenhagen to Helsingor, because it is predictable. But things start to go wrong when Borg falls asleep, and wakes up in a mysterious, deserted railway siding.
