About this listen

For the first time in English, the second psychological thriller from No 1 bestselling Swedish crime sensation Camilla Läckberg

In the fishing community of Fjallbacka, life is remote, peaceful – and for some, tragically short.

Foul play was always suspected in the disappearance twenty years ago of two young holidaymakers in the area. Now a young boy out playing has confirmed this grim truth. Their remains, discovered with those of a fresh victim, send the town into shock.

Local detective Patrik Hedstrom, expecting a baby with his girlfriend Erica, can only imagine what it is like to lose a child. When a second young girl goes missing, Hedstrom's attention focuses on the Hults, a feuding clan of misfits, relgious fanatics and criminals. The suspect list is long but time is short – which of this family's dark secrets will provide the vital clue?

Yes I finished it, but more of some sort of zen than actually being that interested. Not as good as book 1. Truly gory in parts too.

A bit longwinded

I enjoyed this story - I did find it a little complicated with all the different family layers - but sorted them out in my head before too long. it was full of suspense and held my interest, I had no idea who the killer was until near the end.

Good listening

The story is very exciting but the narrator struggles with the pronunciation of the Swedish names of people and places.

Swedish is not so easy

Although very little is new here it is told well and the twists and turns of the plot are not too obvious. I could have done with a little less of the annoying visitors who seemed to be there for comic relief.

Solid story

Good Follow-up!!

Enjoyed the story but almost stopped listening because of the narrator. Just sounds like someone off the street reading a story put in front of him for the first time. Voice awful - especially the female ones. Other than that a good listen.

Awful narrator

It was an enjoyable listen...I'd say Scandinavian Agatha Christie. Not quite a masterpiece but it fit together nicely. I guessed the wrong murderer, so that was a good surprise.

Excellent

I enjoyed the book but disappointed when last chapter cut off with ending missing.
Was this a poor copy from discs? Narrator says end of disc 1.for example.
We pay for complete story.

Cut off at the end? , Disappointed

2003: The body of a tortured woman shows up on top of two other bodies, both killed in 1979. The police need to solve both set of murders and discover the circumstances that link them to each other. The suspects all belong to the same family, the descendents of a faith-healer and preacher. Well read and well paced, this is a treat for fans of Scandinavian murder mysteries. I would love to listen to more of Camilla Lackberg's books.

An excellent Scandinavian murder mystery
