Original Finnish title Musta kuin eebenpuu (2014). Translated from the Finnish by Owen F. Witesman. Snow White Trilogy # 3. London: Hot Key Books 2015. Paperback, 166 pages.
Dimensions: 128 x 198 x 13 mm. Weight unlabelled < 170 g.
I categorized this book as 'Literature & Fiction' because that category covers most genres. In Finland it's said to be a teen book (we don't use the term YA). It's all that and a thriller too.
The blurb:
Lumikki has a new boyfriend — easygoing, gorgeous Sampsa — but she is unfaithful in her dreams, longing for the electrifying touch of her ex, Blaze.
Then the threats start arriving, from someone who seems to know Lumikki intimately. Sharing her fears risks deadly consequences; now she is more alone than ever.
When Blaze suddenly reappears, Lumikki is torn. She can't deny the chemistry between them, but can she trust him? To stop the killer, Lumikki must uncover a dark secret that has haunted her family for years.
The final volume in a stunning thriller sequence from acclaimed Finnish crime writer, Salla Simukka.

I guess making it on your own is sometimes quicker, as I gather this is book three of the trilogy. I'll wait to read them in order -surely the other two will arrive quickly. Thanks so much for sending. I'm not sure where this is meant to go once I've read it, but I guess I have a bit of time. Thanks so much for making this available.
