Sybilla Forsenstrom doesn't exist. For fifteen years she has been excluded from society and, as one of the homeless in Stockholm, she takes each day as it comes, keeping all her possessions in her rucksack - apart from a knife and salami which she stores in a smart briefcase. She is always well-dressed and displays impeccable manners. One night, in The Grand Hotel, she charms a susceptible businessman into paying for her dinner and room. His dead body is discovered the following morning and Sybilla becomes the prime suspect. When a second person is killed in similar circumstances, she becomes the most wanted person in Sweden.

Review:
A genuine hit . . . a brilliant novel. * * Gefle Dagblad, Sweden * * A very powerful novel. Skilfully, very intimately and realistically, Alvtegen describes an individual living outside the margins. * * Helsingborgs Dagblad * * A gripping, multi-faceted thriller. It is not only about brutal murder, but also about something more profound - an individual's road to awareness about her own life and value . . . Alvtegen is already amongst the top Swedish crime and thriller authors. * * Folkbladet Joenkoeping * *
Book Description:
A timely reissue of CWA-shortlisted Karin Alvtegen's acclaimed psychological thriller
