The book delves into the circumstances surrounding the death of Charles XII of Sweden, a king known for his military exploits and controversial legacy. The work aims to offer insights into whether his death was the result of an assassination or a combat-related incident. In this comprehensive investigation, Hultgren reviews various eyewitness accounts, historical records, and contemporary theories to piece together the events that led to the king's demise during the siege of Fredriksten Fortress in 1718. The author presents testimonies from military officers and explores the implications of potential conspiracy theories, including allegations against an officer named Sicre, and examines medical examinations of the royal remains. Ultimately, Hultgren advocates for a critical reevaluation of existing narratives around Karl XII's death, arguing that there is substantial evidence to suggest that he may have been murdered rather than killed in action.
