Askungar by Kristina Ohlsson
4.0
This is the first of Kristina Olssons novels and I´m glad there now is three more to read. I was a bit reluctant to read it because here in Sweden we suddenly have a lot of crime writers - unfortunately few of them are worth reading...
Well, Kristina Olsson is NOT one of them. The story is ok and the characters are interesting. This first book makes you want to get to know them better.
I also do like when there is a theme in a crime novel, when the crime and the investigation somehow is being reflected in the character´s lives. For example like in Elizabeth George´s Missing Joseph had the theme childlessness and the loss of children in it this novel - as the english title hints - the theme is unwanted children.
