I read this book at the height of my Scandinavian thriller period, several years ago, and while I liked all book in the series, this one was always my favourite. When a young girl is found murdered, the investigation only leads to more suspects and motives as time goes by... But I tried to re-im...
This, the third entry into the Fjallbacka series, reminded me quite a lot in feel of John Ajvide Lindqvist's 'Harbor' - but without the supernatural aspects.As with the previous two books, Lackberg's story centers on a grisly death which, under investigation, turns out to hinge upon the unsavory sec...
I can't rate this book. I started it but have discovered I can't read a book with heavy doses of postpartum depression. After my own rather intense and debilitating struggles with that particular condition I just can't go there. This author spoke in a very authentic voice and I am interested to rea...

Read my full review at: http://bit.ly/PF4L9iMy absolute favorite of this series. This book started off creepy and just continued on until the last page. I must admit that I figured out the murderer very early in the book, but didn't understand the why. One of my complaints with Lackberg books is tha...
I really liked the first two books in this series so I knew that once I was able to read the third book I would. In this book Erica and Patrik have a newly born little girl, Maja. I loved seeing them all as a family, that was one of the bright spots of this book. As far as the rest of the book I fou...
On one hand, the form - flashbacks interspacing the storyline - has gotten pretty broing and tedious by now. On the other: major mindf*ck at the end. So: a good book. :)
The author could have researched when coca cola arrived in Sweden (1953 not in the 1920s) since everything else is so meticulously researched in the book (there's even a lecture on Asperger's). Or is it the editor who should pick up on mistakes like this?Too much was crammed into the cook but it sti...
Very easy reading, if you can avoid thinking too hard about all the murders and other cruelty and stuff, but not mindless by any means. Very focused on parent-child relationships. Quite a lot of talk about evil people - but this is a bit misleading as it's more evil emerging out of evil done to peop...
