Anne Holt Libri

Una dolente, umanissima coppia di detective: l'investigatore Stubo e la criminologa Vik. Lui, che ha appena perso moglie e figlia in uno stupido incidente, sa che l'unico modo per venire a capo del caso dei bambini rapiti è convincere Vik a partecipare alle indagini. Lei non ne ha proprio voglia, ma non può restare indifferente di fronte al crescente orrore, e alla fine accetta. Tempo da perdere proprio non ce n'è, almeno finché c'è una speranza. Il primo di una serie di thriller investigativi caratterizzato da una sottigliezza psicologica degna delle "grandi" del giallo inglese, dal gusto per la precisione e il respiro romanzesco, che alterna i colpi di scena a una comprensione profonda e pietosa della natura umana. In una atmosfera rarefatta dove, senza accorgersene, dalla prima all'ultima scena si trattiene il respiro.

Three of the victims are members of the family, and the fourth is an outsider, seemingly out of place. Cake had been set out in the living room and a bottle of champagne had been opened but not yet poured.

As Hanne Wilhelmsen investigates the case alongside her longtime police partner, Billy T., motives for the murders emerge in abundance; each surviving member of the Stahlberg family had good reason to want the victims dead
