About this listen
Beneath the imposing Kollen Mountain lies a small village where the children run in and out of one another's houses and play unafraid in the streets. But the sleepy village is like a pond through which not enough water runs - beneath the surface it is beginning to stagnate. When a naked body is found by the lake at the top of the mountain, its seeming tranquillity is disturbed forever. Enter Inspector Sejer, a tough, no-nonsense policeman whose own life is tinged by sadness. As the suspense builds, and the list of suspects grows, Sejer's determination to discover the truth leads him to peel away layer upon layer of distrust and lies in this tiny community where apparently normal family ties hide dark secrets. Critically acclaimed across Europe, Karin Fossum's novels evoke a world that is terrifyingly familiar. Don't Look back introduces the tough, ethical Inspector Sejer to British readers.

convincing and gripping.

This book began with a storyline which was emerging at the end of the first novel and which was peripheral but important background to the plot. The characters are interesting and realistic, as is the storyline. There was little political interest in the story apart from an understanding that the police and pathology services are understaffed and underresourced. Although there were many surprises, it always seemed believable. Recommend.
Good Scandinavian police novel

I was looking for another series now that I have come to the end of the fab Wallander series. This doesn't quite match up, but doesn't do a bad job of trying.
Unfortunately it succumbed to a typical ending, which I won't describe, but it disappointed me, hence the three stars for 'story'.
Let down by the end
