When two cold case disappearances are reopened, a decade of deadly secrets is unearthed on Sandhamn Island in the #1 bestselling thriller by Viveca Sten, author of In Bad Company.

A woman’s skeletal remains are excavated on an uninhabited island in Sandhamn’s archipelago, and Thomas Andreasson is called to officially investigate. But his best friend, Nora Linde, can’t help but get involved.

On leave after her last case took a dark turn, Nora is tortured by depression, nightmares, and guilt. Her marriage fractured, her pride chipped away, Nora could find redemption in this investigation. Then evidence suggests two possible cold cases linked to the grim discovery: two women who have been missing for ten years. Now Nora feels compelled to unearth a mystery someone has gone to great pains to bury. What could have happened to require such a cover-up?

As the cold case vanishings converge, Nora follows a twisting trail of revenge, blackmail, and betrayal. She’s also inviting the watchful eye of someone determined to stop her. To free herself from the damaging grip of the past - and the reach of a relentless killer - Nora is going to have to brave the darkness one more time.

I love this author and her books. However, the narrator talked like she had candy in her mouth. Also, I really didn’t like the direction Nora’s character went. It was painful to see a strong woman become so weak,

My least favorite of the series

This book was a hard lesson, because you want to root for the main characters at all times, and it’s difficult when they are fallible humans like the rest of us. There are a lot of reviews that are very critical of the storyline, mostly because of this point, as well as the new narrator. I read the reviews before listening to the book, and have a different perspective. I think it is just the author’s misfortune that the new narrator came on at the same time as this difficult story for the main character. Facing the challenge of a new voice, giving life to the characters were so familiar after all the other books along with our disappointment, and some of the main characters choices was a bit of a double whammy. However, on reflection, I was used to the new narrator by the end of the book, and I appreciate the authors efforts in creating characters who struggle like all of the rest of us. The detail around the struggles was at times painful, but always believable. I find myself wishing the next book wouldn’t be so dark, and then laughing at myself because darkness is exactly what one gets when one readsmurder mysteries. All in law, I think this book was a worthwhile use of my time.

I love Viveca Sten’s novels. But the reader put me to sleep. Monotonous performance. What a shame! I ended up reading the book on my Kindle.

Great story but monotone reading

Very disappointed in the last book. Not only was the narrator awful. Which I have sent audio books back when I realized she was the narrator because she talks so slow and monotone. It makes the book boring. But I also did not like how Nora became so weak in this book. Should have been a better ending for her.

Book took a different turn from all the others.

The entire story was dark. It was not in keeping with the series. Nora's character was disappointing. The narration was poor. I do not recommend the book.

Disappointed

I normally enjoy following Nora and Thomas as they navigate their jobs and respective family lives but this one was tough. Nora has been spiraling down into depression since the case where she helped an abused wife and is not very likable. Then she starts stepping on the police toes and can hinder an investigation. Meanwhile, Thomas is struggling w balancing work and single parenthood.
The story was decent but a bit slow

It was ok, bit slow

A skeletal hand is found on a remote island near Sandhamn. The police investigation is looking into the disappearance of three people ten years ago. Nora Linde is deteriorating into alcohol after the terror of her last case. A cast of characters from the most innocent to deadly evil. Great series.

A Deadly Secret

The first eight books of this series were great, especially books 7 and 8. The last two however were big disappointments. Just as some television series that should have stopped when they were on top, I'm afraid this series should have done the same. It didn't help that the narrator was also changed to one of my least favorite narrators. Her male voices are like nails to a chalkboard. I'm afraid that after these last two books, I will not continue to listen to any other books that might be added.

Great series fizzeled out

I love the stories of these books. I have listened to every single one of them in the series with that being said, I prefer the narrator from the previous series over this one however still a good story.
