A mathematician navigates family chaos and corporate murder in this darkly comic thriller.
This narrative centers on Henri Koskinen, an entrepreneur who believes in common sense until his life becomes unmanageable. He joins a group of local dads while dealing with a competitor that breaks laws to grow. The plot intertwines the difficulties of raising a stepdaughter with the lethal risks of running an adventure park. Tuomainen uses this setup to explore how rigid logic collapses when faced with real-world violence and emotional complexity.

Readers will find a protagonist forced to act outside his comfort zone as the stakes rise. The tone remains sharp and ironic throughout, highlighting the disconnect between Henri’s desire for order and the messy reality he inhabits.
