A Novel
by Camilla Läckberg
In the third novel from the bestselling female writer in Sweden - and for the first time in English - the mysterious drowning of a little girl threatens to tear apart the town of Fjallbacka.
The remote resort town of Fjallbacka has seen its share of tragedy, though perhaps none worse than that of the little girl found in a fisherman's net. But this was no accidental drowning...
Local detective Patrik Hedstrom has just become a father. It's his grim task to discover who could be behind the murder of a child both he and his partner Erica knew well. What he does not know is how this case will reach into the dark heart of Fjallbacka, spanning generations, ripping aside its idyllic façade, perhaps forever.
"Starred Review. Läckberg's excellent third novel set in the west coast village of Fjällbacka, like its predecessors The Ice Princess and The Preacher, strips conventional veneers from her achingly complex characters." - Publishers Weekly
"Starred Review. A perfectly plotted and paced mystery bolstered by strong, realistic characters makes this a must-read for all followers of Scandinavian crime fiction." - Booklist
"Läckberg's greatest strength is dramatizing the long shadows of family troubles that grow to monstrous size." - Kirkus Reviews
