About this title

Synopsis:

Praise for The Ice Princess:

"The hottest crime genre of the moment is Nordic noir and Swedish writer Camilla Läckberg (who shares Stieg Larsson's translator) is one of the reasons. As with all Scandinavian murder mysteries, it's darker, bleaker, and the plot far more sinister than similar American fare. Larsson fans who give Läckberg's novel a chance to seduce them will be rewarded."--USA Today

"At the start of Läckberg's haunting U.S. debut, biographer Erica Falck feels compelled to write a novel about why her beautiful friend Alex would kill herself. Läckberg skillfully details how horrific secrets are never completely buried and how silence can kill the soul."--Publishers Weekly, starred review

"Camilla Läckberg has written seven blockbuster novels in her native Swedish but, until now, no one has published any of them in the United States. Now Pegasus Books has stepped forward."--The New York Times

"Heart-stopping--a masterclass in Scandinavian crime fiction."--Val McDermid

Review:

Läckberg weaves a solid thriller that will gratify fans of Liza Marklund, Stieg Larsson, and the team of Anders Roslund and Borge Hellstrom. This fast-paced tale ensures Läckberg's place on the A-list of Scandinavian crime writers.

Läckberg's many-layered story features plot twists and turns galore.... Patrik and Erica continue to evolve, leading readers to become increasingly involved in their lives. Stieg Larsson fans seeking more Nordic crime fiction may want to try Sweden's top-selling crime writer. Läckberg is also highly recommended for readers who like mysteries set in foreign countries.
