Amazon Editorial Review

“The latest hot Swedish import.”—Entertainment Weekly

“One of those books that will keep you up throughout the night...Make room on your shelf—and calendar—for this one.”—Bookreporter.com

Police superintendent Malin Fors returns in this chilling third novel from the critically acclaimed author of Midwinter Blood, the first in the series and “a splendid representative of the Swedish crime novel, in all its elegance and eeriness” (Booklist, starred review).

Autumn rains are pouring down on the Swedish countryside, but it’s the discovery of a brutally stabbed body floating facedown in the moat of Skogså Castle that chills one town to the bone. Jerry Petersson, the castle’s new owner and a notoriously ruthless lawyer and entrepreneur, is now, shall we say, permanently out of business. Meanwhile, Malin Fors, the brilliant but flawed star of the local police force, is already struggling to keep her life together following the recent murder attempt on her teenage daughter, Tove. Now, as the Petersson case forces Malin to delve deep into her town’s history and her own family’s past, the secrets she uncovers threaten to drown her, too.

I have another copy sitting on Mt TBR.

Taking from Plum-crazy's World of Crime Book Box.

I wish I'd read the previous books in the series first - there was a lot of luggage carried by the characters! It was Slavic dark and multi layered. Sort of grippingish.

Returning to the World of Crime BookBox.

I do have a weakness for Scandivian crime so have taken this out of the World of Crime book box

Caught at the Edinburgh Book Festival bookcrossers’ meetup. Thanks.

I decided not to read this after seeing Amazon reviews mentioning ghosts - I can’t be doing with ghosts.

Left on the bookshelves at the Sunvil office in Loggos.
