Synopsis:

"Intense Swedish thriller exploring research, ethics, and human attachment - Booklife"

"A brilliantly disturbing thriller that turns academic precision into pure terror. Impossible to putdown."

When two bodies are discovered in Stockholm's Djurgården Park, their limbs grotesquely fused together by an unknown adhesive compound, Detective Maja Norberg recognizes the hallmarks of something far more sinister than a crime of passion. The victims were forced to die in each other's arms—literally inseparable, conscious until the end.

As more couples fall victim to this methodical killer, Maja's investigation leads her into the shadowy world of Stockholm's academic elite, where groundbreaking research on human attachment and dependency may hold the key to understanding these horrific crimes. But the deeper she digs, the more she realizes that someone has been transforming loving relationships into deadly experiments.

When Maja and her partner Sven find themselves in the killer's crosshairs, she experiences firsthand the horror of "perfect attachment"—forced to endure an unimaginable ordeal that will test the limits of human survival and partnership.

From the acclaimed author of Love Notes and Sticky Tape comes a chilling exploration of how knowledge can be weaponized and love itself can become a trap. Perfect Attachment is a masterful blend of Scandinavian noir and psychological horror that will leave readers questioning the very nature of human connection.

A gripping Nordic noir thriller that exposes the dark heart of academic obsession."

Perfect for fans of Jo Nesbø, Camilla Läckberg, and Lars Kepler
