| Summary |
The Oslo Detectives are back in another chilling slice of Nordic Noir … Frølich searches for the mysterious sister of a young female asylum seeker, but when people start to die, everything points to an old case and a series of events that someone will do anything to hide… ‘Impossible to put down' Guardian ‘Absorbing, heart-rending and perfectly plotted' Denzil Meyrick ‘A masterclass in plotting, atmosphere and character that finely balances shocking twists with the coppers' complicated personal lives' Sunday Times ________________ Suspended from duty, Detective Frølich is working as a private investigator, when his girlfriend's colleague asks for his help with a female asylum seeker, who the authorities are about to deport. She claims to have a sister in Norway, and fears that returning to her home country will mean instant death. Frølich quickly discovers the whereabouts of the young woman's sister, but things become increasingly complex when she denies having a sibling, and Frølich is threatened off the case by the police. As the body count rises, it becomes clear that the answers lie in an old investigation, and the mysterious sister, who is now on the run… dark, chilling and up-to-the-minute Nordic Noir thriller, Sister is also a tense and well-plotted murder mystery with a moving tragedy at its heart, cementing Kjell Ola Dahl as one of the greatest crime writers of our generation. ________________ ‘Kjell Ola Dahl's novels are superb' William Ryan ‘Suspenseful, beautifully and clearly written, with a sure-footed plot, this is a book that thrills' Live & Deadly ‘Dark, stylish and suspenseful … the perfect example of why Nordic Noir has become such a popular genre' Readers Digest ‘If you have never sampled Dahl, now is the time to try' Daily Mail. |
