'A breath of fresh cold air . . . a dangerous edge to gladden fans
of Lisbeth Salander' Boyd Tonkin From the million-book bestselling
author comes another nail-biting thriller, for fans of Stieg
Larsson, The Bridge and The Killing TV series. The murder of a
female priest sends shockwaves through the isolated community of
Kiruna. A crime that has terrifying echoes of another. Lawyer
Rebecka Martinsson returns to Kiruna to help the police, and is
soon drawn into the dead woman's world. A world of hurt and
healing, sin and sexuality, and above all, of lethal sacrifice. Can
Rebecka find the truth before she is consumed by it? 'Among the
current batch of Nordic writers, Larsson is one to be followed with
the most minute attention' Barry Forshaw, Independent 'A superior
example of Scandinavian noir' Julia Handford, Sunday Telegraph
'Larsson's laid-back style makes her unflinching probing of the icy
depths of the human heart all the more chilling' Jake Kerridge,
Telegraph Asa Larsson has sold over a million and a half books
worldwide. Her first novel, The Savage Altar, won the award for
Sweden's best first crime novel. This is her second novel starring
Rebecka Martinsson.
