Q—STARRING MATTHEW GOODE, CHLOE PIRRIE, AND ALEXJE MANVELOV! Get to know the detective in charge of Copenhagen's coldest cases in the first electrifying Department Q mystery from New York Times bestselling author Jussi Adler-Olsen . Carl Mørck used to be one of Denmark’s best homicide detectives. Then a hail of bullets destroyed the lives of two fellow cops, and Carl—who didn’t draw his weapon—blames himself. So a promotion is the last thing he expects. But Department Q is a department of one, and Carl’s got only a stack of cold cases for company. His colleagues snicker, but Carl may have the last laugh, because one file keeps nagging at him: a liberal politician vanished five years earlier and is presumed dead. But she isn’t dead...yet. Darkly humorous, propulsive, and atmospheric, The Keeper of Lost Causes introduces American readers to the mega-bestselling series fast becoming an international sensation. Review: Read this as 'Mercy' and I loved it. I love noir books anyway and the ... - Read this as 'Mercy' and I loved it. I love noir books anyway and the gutsy heroine of this one has me rooting for her right till the end. I also love the dynamics between the cops - Carl Morck with his deadpan ironic sense of humour and Assad with his affectionate nature; his wow deductive skills and his deadly instincts. It's really he who gives Morck the impetus to keep going on, when he flounders. This is my fourth Adler book and he's turned into one of my favourite writers. You should also read 'Alphabet House'. You won't be disappointed. Review: Impossible set of characters to solve a 5 years old crime - The unraveling of a crime committed five years earlier—hastily and inadequately investigated at the time—unfolds through the winding odyssey of a detective whose temper frays every relationship he touches, a man worn down by suffering and disillusionment, adrift in a personal life in ruins and stripped of any real motivation for his work. Alongside him stands a chief whose sole ambition is to siphon the budget of the police’s new department into other investigative ventures, and a foreigner—an enigmatic newcomer from a culture worlds apart from Denmark’s, yet utterly devoted to his calling. It becomes impossible not to feel irresistibly drawn toward what may come next, or to hope, against all odds, that something might occur to alter a fate that seems increasingly unreachable. ## Features - Plume Books ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #500,405 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #4,792 in Mysteries (Books) #5,575 in Thrillers and Suspense #7,198 in Crime Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 7,594 Reviews | ## Images ![The Keeper of Lost Causes - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81FaTarH5BL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Read this as 'Mercy' and I loved it.

The suspense builds and there is a little bit of humour throughout. The characters are well developed and realistic. And excellent read. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Keeper of Lost Causes: The First Department Q Novel (A Department Q Novel) - The Absent One: A Department Q Novel, Book Cover May Vary - A Conspiracy of Faith: A Department Q Novel --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/93917200-the-keeper-of-lost-causes](https://www.desertcart.no/products/93917200-the-keeper-of-lost-causes) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-17*
