It’s May and the snow has hardly melted in Göteborg, Sweden, but things are heating up quickly for Detective Inspector Irene Huss in the Violent Crimes Unit. The body of a teenage girl is found in the woods, naked and horrifically scarred. Then there’s the body that is discovered on a demolition site, not to mention the city’s ongoing gang violence. With the sudden influx of cases and one detective out on maternity leave, everyone is stretched thin.

Then a second young girl is found. Fearing the two cases are linked and that the killer may strike again, Irene and he colleagues embark on a desperate hunt that takes them deep into a shadowy world of anonymous online predators and insecure teenage girls on a deadly quest for affirmation.

“These days Scandinavian crime writers are thick on the ground. It's nice to see that the women can be just as bloodthirsty as the men.”
—The New York Times Book Review
“As good as Louise Welsh's similarly creepy tour of Glasgow.”
—Entertainment Weekly
