It skewers small‑town power games through the birth of a cheeky morning newspaper as the idle plotter Carsten Baltazar de Beer clashes with affluent timber merchant Ole Berg. Central to the antics is the quick‑witted Gudrun Sten, whose ingenuity fuels the paper’s early coups. Readers can expect newsroom capers, civic squabbles, and nimble social comedy. At the start of the story, de Beer seizes on a club‑room wager to found a daily paper and vows to win even his foe Berg as a subscriber, whipping up buzz with giant posters and the promise of a Berg interview. He quietly recruits a ragtag staff—steady Truls Wall, the unreliable Stig Hvide (Ole Bro), and the discreet tipster Jan Wilken—while Gudrun Sten handles proofreading and a women’s page. When Berg flees by sea to dodge publicity, Gudrun befriends him incognito and, after a fog‑bound game of cat and mouse, phones in enough remarks to craft a splashy first issue that sells out. The feud escalates: Berg tries to buy de Beer off and squeezes advertisers; the paper counters with civic skirmishes, a women’s craft exhibition, and sharp satire; Gudrun refuses a rival’s offer and adds caricatures; Stig defects to the old paper; and de Beer turns even Berg’s public lecture notice and a disputed six‑krona fee into fresh headlines, ending with Berg phoning in fury to correct the jab.
