What to expect

Detective Inspector Jesper Ek has fallen head over heels in love. But his new love, Julia, is a mystery. What is it she doesn't want to tell? When her past catches up with her, the trap closes around Ek, leaving him in a terrible predicament where he can't even turn to his colleagues for help. Maria Wern is called to the rectory in Lärbro and realizes it holds many secrets. According to legend, a priest was slain in the church in the 13th century, and it is said that the killer still walks the earth. The young priest Alva has been threatened, and the deacon Ragnar is deeply worried that she isn't taking the threats seriously. When Maria discovers scrapbooks about Alva that the deacon has compiled, new questions arise. On Gotland, the Mother Goddess-holding snakes in her hands-has been worshiped since the Stone Age. It is in this setting that Anna Jansson's new, thrilling crime novel about Maria Wern unfolds.
