Vinteren 2019: Den første adventshelgen reiser småbarnsmor Camilla Lund på jentetur til Sverige. Det er i alle fall det hun har fortalt mannen sin. Hun kommer aldri tilbake til Setesdal. Mistanken om at kona er en helt annen person enn han hadde trodd blir sterkere hos den unge ektemannen. Camilla har ingen venner fra gamle dager, ingen foreldre i live - tilsynelatende ingen fortid i det hele tatt.I Oslo får Kripos-lederen Agnete Ness ordre av Riksadvokaten om å innlede en hemmelig etterforskning av Camilla Lunds forsvinning. Riksadvokaten vil ha Agnetes beste etterforsker, Ulf Sommer, på saken. Ordren er at Ulf ikke skal vite noe mer enn at den uskyldsrene Camilla Lund fra Setesdal har forsvunnet. Agnete blir derimot utsyrt med en hemmelig mappe med sakspapirer. Inni mappa ligger gamle bilder av en ung jente. For tjue år siden visste hele Norge hvem denne jenta var. Tre nynazister, blant dem en 15 år gammel jente, ble dømt for drapet på to innvandrergutter i Oslo. Det var den mest rystende drapssaken landet hadde opplevd. For Agnete Ness er alt personlig. Den svarte avgrunnen hun trodde var fortid blir igjen virkelig.Camilla Lunds forsvinning blir starten på Agnetes største mareritt. For Ulf Sommer blir alt et kappløp mot tiden. Han er den eneste som kan redde Agnete fra hennes egen fortid.En dag skal du dø er den første boka i en ny krimserie om etterforskerparet Ulf Sommer og Agnete Ness.

En kvinne blir funnet drept, og en av fingrene hennes er kuttet av. Harry Hole får vite at også Tom Waaler er satt på saken, og han nekter derfor først å bli involvert. Så blir en kvinne meldt savnet, og da en av hennes fingre dukker opp hos politiet, begynner man å ane at en seriemorder kan være på ferde. Enda en kvinne blir funnet drept, også hun med en finger kuttet av. Harry avdekker et mønster i drapene. Kanskje er det mulig å forutsi hvor og når neste drap skal skje. Dette er den femte boka om Harry Hole.

Kriminalførstebetjent Servaz kan ikke forstå at han blir kalt ut for et dødt dyr, men det er noe underlig ved denne forbrytelsen han ikke kan overse. Hestens hodeløse kropp er vrengt og hengt opp i isødet på 2000 meters høyde. Omtrent samtidig begynner en ung og nyutdannet psykolog på en psykiatrisk institusjon for ekstra farlige kriminelle. Institusjonen er svært strengt bevoktet. Når det blir oppdaget DNA-spor i hesteliket fra en av de aller farligste pasientene, blir det klart at det ikke lenger bare handler om en død hest. Få dager senere finner det første drapet sted. Marerittet har startet. Atmosfæren er tyngende, intrigen spent til det ytterste. Hvis helvete var av is er et dypdykk i våre innerste, hemmelige redsler. En grusom historie om galskap og hevn - langt inne i Pyreneene.
