Publisher's Synopsis
"One of the best writers of Scandinavian crime fiction."—Harlan Coben "She is in total control of plot and pace and conveys a chilling atmosphere."—The London Times Reckless in the grip of passion, a successful event planner leaves his wife and children for his new lover. When he turns up murdered after a big night out, the spurned wife is a natural suspect. But the motive widens when three cottages are set on fire in the peaceful vacation destination of Gotland Island. In order for Detective Anders Knutas to catch the killer, he must unravel the truth that lies hidden at the heart of a broken family—and face secrets of his own. Mari Jungstedt is known for her intelligent plots and excruciating suspense novels. Her Anders Knutas series has made her the second best-selling crime-in-translation author published by Random House World, and her titles have been turned into popular movies and TV series with both European and American audiences.
