Review:
Of consistently high quality, well-plotted, carefully translated and well written. Highly recommended.
Well-plotted, carefully translated and well written. Highly recommended.
There should be a better word for a mystery that runs on for 500-plus pages, stuffed with multigenerational back stories for key characters and detailed subplots about the domestic affairs of the married sleuths, their friends, colleagues and former spouses. How about calling it a historical-biographical-romantic-domestic-police-procedural-crime-and-love saga? Intriguing. Lackberg has whipped up a respectable plot.
Excellent. Horrific secrets come to light as the author skillfully shows how the past has influenced recent events.
One of those mysteries that ruin a vacation. Take it to the beach and your eyes will be so locked on its pages, you'll never even know there's an ocean in front of you.
What could be darker than Nordic crime fiction? Nordic noir with Nazi war criminals!... You might want to think twice about reading this at home alone at night.
Fire and ice! Masterful suspense as compelling as secrets lying far beneath the dark sea. Läckberg is the perfect crime novelist who combines her gift for intriguingly complicated plots and a keen understanding of the 'grotesques' who live among us. Erotic and terrifying.--Ann Rule, author of In The Still of the Night
If Camilla keeps producing mysteries as richly textured and downright breathtaking as her latest, who knows? Maybe, one day, we might be identifying Agatha Christie as 'the British Camilla Läckberg.--Maureen Corrigan
Eerie. Läckberg will keep you guessing.
