Reviews

• “Johan Theorin is a driven writer who knows how to get the reader hooked right from the very first page. /…/ Although this is slow crime, it is exciting from beginning to end, and if you are interested in people, relationships, and history, [Weathered Bones] is a little treasure trove.”

• “I greatly appreciate Johan Theorin’s empathetic description of nature, the distinctive landscape on an island that is also his own. The widespread sky, the low vegetation, rocks, sea and sea again. /…/ At the risk of sounding pompous: We are talking about the beauty as well as the horrors of human nature. /…/ And, if I have not mentioned the drama and suspense, then I have to change that – because it’s there! /…/ The reader can look forward to finding out if Gerlof succeeds once again in repairing some of the damage the dead have suffered, clearing out a falsely accused person and creating balance again. And along the way, the readers gets another extremely well-written book.”

• “An eerie and thrilling journey through time and space on Öland.”

• “Johan Theorin portions out insights with a master’s touch. /…/ a mystery novel when it is at its best, and of course it is nominated for Best Swedish mystery novel of the year.”
