Reviews

• “There is a sense of simultaneity in the narrative that brings it to life. /…/ The final resolution is bold, surprising, and highly dramatic. ”

• “Let it be said right away: this collaboration works. /…/ The storytelling is even sharper in the second book. The experienced authors handle the crime genre with great skill. The reader is carefully guided and subtly manipulated so that the tension holds all the way to the final chapter. The setting descriptions—from winding western Norwegian roads to dark Swedish forests—are vivid and cinematic, making you feel as if you’re there. /…/ The innovative approach from the first book (…) works even better this time around. Fjell and Horst deliver an intricate plot. Revenge, old sins, broken paternal dreams, and carefully planted red herrings collide in a spectacular, breathless, and unpredictable finale.”
