Insurance mathematician Henri has his life under control, when a man from the past appears and a shady trio take over the adventure park's equipment supply company. Things are messier than ever in the absurdly funny, heart-stoppingly tense second instalment in Antti Tuomainen's bestselling series. 'In these uncertain times, what better hero than an actuary?'

Why won't Toy of Finland Ltd sell the new Moose Chute to Henri when he needs it as the park's main attraction?
