Mari Jungstedt lives in Stockholm. Her husband comes from Visby, Gotland, and they spend their summers on Gotland.
Det er junimåned, og de fire venner fra villakvarteret i Visby tager på deres årlige sommertur. I hverdagen deler de det meste: børnepasning, havearbejde, middage, fester, løbeture, hinandens fortrolighed – og har gjort det i mange år. I år har de planlagt en temarejse i Ingmar Bergmans fodspor med indlogering på Fårö og derefter et smut til Stora Karlsö. Uden børn. Men undervejs går noget helt galt. Det bliver en sag for Anders Knutas og ikke mindst kollegaen Karin Jacobsson. En sag, som går langt ud over det sædvanlige.
Mari Jungstedts syvende roman borer dybt i de hemmeligheder, selv venner skjuler for hinanden. Den dobbelte tavshed er en nervepirrende psykologisk krimi, der stadfæster Mari Jungstedts position som en af Skandinaviens stærkeste krimiforfattere.
