Strung out Icelandic forensic tech, Askja, helps uncover a skeleton in the depths of a glacial cave. When she autopsies the remains back at the lab, she discovers that the body was that of a Neanderthal woman who was wearing a modern designer jacket and was shot through the chest with a Russian bullet. As she begins to investigate the mystery (and begins a steamy affair with police inspector, Freya), things turn dangerous when someone blows up the lab.
