Amazon Editorial Review
Nina Borg, a Red Cross nurse, wife, and mother of two, is trying to live a quiet life. The last thing her husband wants is for her to go running off on another dangerous mission to help illegal refugees. But when Ninas estranged friend Karin leaves Nina a key to a public locker in the Copenhagen train station and begs her to take care of its contents, Nina gets suckered into her most dangerous case yet. Because inside the suitcase is a three-year-old boy: naked and drugged, but alive. Ninas natural instinct is to rescue the boy, but she knows the situation is risky. Is the boy a victim of child trafficking? Can he be turned over to authorities, or will they only return him to whoever sold him? In an increasingly desperate trek across Denmark, Nina tries to figure out who the boy is, where he belongs, and who exactly is hunting him down. When Karin is discovered brutally murdered, Nina realizes that her life and the boys are in jeopardy, too.

Thanks keeta1. I've always wanted to read this.
A really good read. I have read a lot of mystery/thrillers but this one was different - new. It got me hooked right from the start.

Thanks very much, book-a-neer. Looks interesting. Different is good!
Journal Entry 9 by crimson-tide at Balingup, Western Australia Australia on Monday, February 22, 2021
Certainly a cut above most of the formulaic thrillers. I found it a little slow to get into but the action and tension was certainly ramped up as the book progressed and it became a compelling read. While not the best written book, it is fine for what it is. All the major players running about trying to figure out what is really going on, and all missing a vital (but different) thing or piece of information made it an interesting and absorbing story. Not sure that I’ll search out any others of the Nina Borg series, but not sorry to have read it.
