What to expect
Irene Huss is a former jujitsu champion, a mother of twin teenage girls, the wife of a successful chef, and a detective inspector with the Violent Crimes Unit in Goteborg, Sweden. And now she's back.
One nurse lies dead and another vanishes after their hospital is hit by a blackout. The only witness claims to have seen Nurse Tekla doing her rounds, but Nurse Tekla died sixty years ago. Detective Inspector Irene Huss of the Violent Crimes Unit has the challenge of disentangling wandering ghosts and complex human relationships to get to the bottom of this intriguing case.
A cult hit in the first three novels of the series, the Irene Huss novels are available once again for English-language fans.
Critics Review
“The warmth of Irene’s family life (including descriptions
of her chef-husband’s luscious food) is the perfect counterpoint to the story’s
bleak plot and climate. Best of all is Toren’s rendering of Mama Bird, a
mentally ill witness whose spirited description is the main link to the
murderer. Many will enjoy this grand addition to the Huss series.”
“One of the more domestic in the dark and violent
Nordic crime field…Huss’ investigation delves into the history of the hospital
and the local wealthy family who owns it, creating a taut and compelling
mystery.”
“Tursten does an outstanding job of offering
multiple plausible murderers, making this the rare procedural that actually
requires the reader to evaluate alibis, motives, and means to solve the case.”
“I couldn’t put down this finely crafted Swedish
procedural with its complex story line and heart-stopping climax. In her fourth
outing (after The Glass Devil), Huss works intuitively, and her family
interactions add extra depth to the novel.”
