Death Drives an Audi

Life is looking pretty bleak for Asger.

Their initial days together in a Copenhagen ghetto only serve to pile on the hopelessness. But then Waldemar hatches a plan: fabled healer Torbi el Mekki offers a miracle cure to all who seek an audience. Only thing is, he's in Morocco - over two thousand miles and another continent away.
