The book centers around Paavo Kontio, a once-famous lawyer who has retreated into a secluded, almost hermit-like existence after a brilliant but tumultuous political career. Over time, he has become a subject of myth and speculation as society wonders about his dramatic exit from the public eye and his current life on a farm outside Helsinki.  The opening of the novel introduces Paavo Kontio as a character plagued by restlessness and dissatisfaction. Once a prominent figure in the legal and political realms, he has chosen a life of solitude away from the bustling city. As the narrative unfolds, Kontio is depicted as engaging with his past, reflecting on his choices, and experiencing a sudden sense of foreboding. This unease culminates in a visit from an old acquaintance, Sinikka, and her companion, which ignites complex emotions in Kontio. The interactions hint at unresolved feelings from their shared history and set the stage for potential conflict and drama, establishing a rich backdrop for the evolving relationships that are sure to unfold.
