Nice job of juxtaposing dark psychological crime (without actually being all that "graphic") with cosy, chewy domestic detail. Well fleshed out secondary/tertiary characters. Love love.
I really like Camilla Lackberg's writing style it is very simple and easy to read. I could even call a cozy mystery? I mean, there isn't anything out of this world about the actual stories she writes. They're borderline unoriginal, meaning that i have read them before. The best way to describe these stories are episodes of "Law & Order" without ever going into a courtroom. I might sound negative but really i enjoy them. This one was pretty good.
Again, Erica is sticking herself into other people's business and into Patrick's police work. She encourages a colleague to write his book, once his book is published and he starts to promote his book he starts receive death threats. But Erica begins to realise she doesn't know her colleague as well as she thought and as she investigates she also come to find that no one really seems to know much about him. Then people start to die. Pretty much this is how they all go. For a small sleepy town in Sweden there sure are a lot of murders...and for a biographer to be in the middle of all of them?
I am joking i actually really enjoyed this book, it was engaging and very interesting. I really like how she develops her characters. I'd recommend this to anyone who likes a good solid mystery.

Again I have come into a series of books, this time at #6, but really did enjoy it. I don't think I missed anything by not reading the previous ones other than recurring character development. My one peeve is there were so many characters that it was hard to keep track. That said, now I'm hooked! This was one twisty mystery.
Cuốn này đỡ lan man hơn các cuốn trước khi các tuyến nhân vật phụ ít được nhắc đến hơn, chủ yếu xoay quanh câu chuyện của những người liên quan đến vụ án. Tuy nhiên tình tiết của cuốn này có vẻ hơi thiếu sáng tạo. Cái motif ai cũng giấu một cái gì đó khi bị thẩm vấn, cảnh sát biết thừa nhưng không có cách nào moi ra được, cứ lặp đi lặp lại, hơi nhàm. Thủ phạm cũng khá thú vị, nhưng không tạo nhiều ấn tượng lắm, có lẽ do khá nhiều tác phẩm khai thác loại thủ phạm này rồi. 4⭐.
I think this is the best one of the author I have read so far. The mystery was so interesting and I had my theories, and the author crushed them. I had no idea who the killer was, and it was brilliant when it was revealed, just brilliant. It was complicated, and I really liked it because I never, ever thought of that person. I highly recommend it.
Este es el libro que más me gustó de la autora, el misterio me resultó muy interesante desde el principio. La resolución me sorprendió muchísimo, nunca sospeché de la persona que terminó siendo el asesino que buscaban, jamás se me cruzó por la cabeza, y fue simplemente brillante. Se explicó todo, y me quedé muy satisfecha. ¡Y ese final! Tuve que leer la sinopsis del séptimo para quedarme tranquila. Super recomendado.

Really good book. Could anyone tell me how to purchase the next one in the series in English? Have only seen the one untranslated. Thanks!
Just wow. A bit slow to start, but once it gets started, it goes in such a fast and unexpected pace that the ending comes as a n unexpected surprise.
Very well done. Will read more from this author.
