Summary
Secrets, vengeance, and a brutal murder unsettle an idyllic winter paradise in a blood-chilling novel of suspense by the acclaimed author of Hidden in Snow and the Sandhamn Murder series.
In the Swedish ski resort of Åre, crime is rare. Certainly nothing so brutal as the murder of Johan Andersson, a former Olympic skier found bound and beaten to death in the forest. According to his distraught wife, he didn’t have any enemies in the world. To Detective Inspectors Hanna Ahlander and Daniel Lindskog, the crime proves otherwise. But what could have provoked such rage? And in whom?
As Hanna and Daniel search for answers, Rebecka Ekvall, a vulnerable pastor’s wife, is trapped in an abusive marriage. Isolated from her congregation, she’s afraid of her husband and even more fearful for her life. Because Rebecka carries a fateful secret. But she isn’t the only one in Åre with something to hide.
As Hanna and Daniel continue to untangle the dark histories of a growing list of suspects, they realize that Johan’s murder is just the beginning of a disturbing case about survival and revenge—at any cost.

Even better than book 1!
It’s a rare writer who outdoes themselves on the second novel but Viveca Sten achieves this. The wonderful characters grow and ensnare your empathy, the plot twists and turns like a crazy snake, the descriptions of the Scandinavian landscape both enchant and frighten. This was a masterpiece in crime writing. The narration really built on the books strengths. Each character’s voice was clear, the pacing superb.

Odd subject matter
I was unprepared for the pro-life onslaught for a child conceived by rape. Was unable to listen further. Purely a personal opinion
