Christian's group of friends a gang of four from childhood is a tangled web of relationships, love triangles, and family secrets that Erica and Patrick must unravel in order to discover what really happened to Magnus and who is still threatening Christian.

But, with the victims themselves concealing evidence, the investigation is going nowhere. Is their silence driven by fear or guilt? What is the secret they would rather die to protect than live to see revealed?"

About this title

Review:

Of the mini-Larssons who have arrived on these shores since The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Camilla Lackberg may be the best. "

If Camilla keeps producing mysteries as richly textured and breathtaking as her latest, who knows? Maybe, one day, we might be identifying Agatha Christie as the British Camilla Lackberg.' --Maureen Corrigan, NPR"

Eerie. Lackberg will keep you guessing. "

Lackberg s subtle approach and unique talent forportraying realistically complex relationships creates a sorrowful, harrowing psychological thriller with a cliff-hanger conclusion."

One day we might be identifying Agatha Christie as 'the British Camilla Lackberg.'--Maureen Corrigan, NPR"

You might want to thing twice about reading this at home alone at night.

Eerie. Lackberg will keep you guessing."

A rich community of characters, dramatic scenes of violence, and a haunting tone. A stunning cliffhanger climax.
