Winner of the Swedish Crime Academy Award for Best Crime Novel,
international sensation Kjell Eriksson has quickly built a name for
himself in the United States. In this highly acclaimed follow-up to
"The Cruel Stars of the Night," Manuel Alavez's life is in ruins.
One of his brothers is dead, the other is in jail, and the man who
double-crossed both men is running a high-class successful
restaurant. A series of dramatic events inevitably leads to murder,
and Inspector Ann Lindell is forced to sample many fine meals at
the restaurant as she attempts to thwart a cunning killer.
Winner of the Swedish Crime academy Award for Best Crime Novel,
"The Princess of Burundi" introduces readers to a leading crime
writer from Sweden whose work has created an international
sensation. Eriksson's U.S. debut opens a week before Christmas when
a Swedish town is rocked by the brutal murder of John Jonsson, a
local family man. Detectives, led by a very pregnant Inspector Ann
Lindell, at first suspect a chillingly well-drawn psychotic, and
they may be right. But if they are not right, that leaves a cunning
and vicious murderer on the loose in their town...A page-turner
from start to finish, "The Princess of Burundi" catapults Eriksson
to the top ranks of international crime fiction writers.
