The International Sensation

It begins in a Stockholm city park where the abused body of a young boy is discovered. Detective Superintendent Jeanette Kihlberg heads the investigation, battling an apathetic prosecutor and a bureaucratic police force unwilling to devote resources to solving the murder of an immigrant child.

But with the discovery of the mutilated corpses of two more children, it becomes clear that a serial killer is at large. Superintendent Kihlberg turns to therapist Sofia Zetterlund for her expertise in the psychopathology of those who kill, and the lives of the two women become quickly intertwined — professionally and personally. As they draw closer to each other and to the truth about the killings, what surfaces is the undeniable fact that these murders are only the most obvious evidence of an insidious evil woven deep into Swedish society.

Any additional comments?

The descriptions of characters and settings are very good. The plot is VERY dark, but well done. I think that I would have liked the ability to go back and check on facts/times but was able to follow without. I don't know that all the twists and turns made sense, but overall I enjoyed the book!

Lots of twists and turns, not all make sense

It started out great. Very dark and interesting thriller. I guess it comes down to the ending. I thought the author copped out and took the safe route. unresolved some loose ends and just ended it. ruined what was an exciting read.

meh

What a dark, tragic, fascinating story about how life shapes the interior lives we lead and the consequences of other people's madness upon the young. We know so little about each other. Most of our life is lived internally. Wonderful writer. Glad I did not have to labor over all those Swedish, Russian and German names. The narrator did a fine job of navigating them. The ending is bitter sweet but mildly satisfying. Loved this three into one extravaganza. It will stay with me longer than most and isn't that really what a good story is about? Not since The Orphan Keepers Son have I been so jolted.

Wonderful!

Another reviewer called this book, twisted. It does not disappoint. No matter how twisted, I found this book, thought-provoking, challenging, and thoroughly enjoyable!

Wow!

not a bad story, had some really good parts but also so many unnecessary plot items and a few unresolved issues. pretty twisted crime story but could have been at least 50% shorter in length.

soooooo loooonnngggg

Excellent listen, but some of the material can be disturbing in relation to child abuse.
I truly enjoyed the novel but found it difficult at times to keep up with the numerous characters and locations.

so many evil people is frightening.
