Rezensionen

Leif GW Persson's sprawling, state-of-the-nation novels make deft use of crime fiction conventions to expose the faultlines of Swedish society. This more closely focused novel is a brilliant exploration of a young woman's murder, press sensationalism, and the inner workings of a police investigation, with readers reintroduced to the blackly humorous and truly unforgettable police detective Evert Bäckström. Petrona judges panel remarks 2014 Petrona Award for Best Scandinavian Crime Novel of the Year 2014
