About this listen

A teenage suicide. A murdered pharmacist. A missing girl. Is the obvious connection the right one?

When a boy leaps to his death from a bridge in the northern town of Umeå, Sweden, police discover drugs scattered in the snow near his body. The town has seen a dramatic increase in narcotic use among its youth, but nobody knows where the pills are coming from.

Relocating from Stockholm with her teenage daughter, Detective Charlotte von Klint expected Umeå to be a quiet backwater, a snow-covered change of pace from fighting the criminal underworld of the capital. But when a pharmacist is found brutally murdered in her apartment, and a young girl and her dealer boyfriend vanish without a trace after a party, suddenly Umeå doesn’t seem so benign. And the boy on the bridge doesn’t feel like an isolated incident.

Is the dealer the perpetrator? Or just another victim? And can it be a coincidence that a shadow from Charlotte’s past, Syndicates boss Tony Israelsson, has recently been released from prison and is reportedly headed for Umeå?

As the snow deepens and the body count rises, Charlotte and her boss, local cop Per Berg, find themselves in a deadly pursuit, with time rapidly running out.

A princess cop solves crimes in designer clothing

This is a bizarre book and certainly the heroine is unique although probably there’s a good reason for that. She’s Swedish Royalty and filthy rich, although in my estimation she behaves more like nouveau riche. She buys mansions and wears jewels and designer clothes to work. The males who work with her appreciate that apparently. There is some suspense. The plot revolves around high school drugs, parties and sexual assault. I listened to so many books like this! Please can’t someone old enough to have memories beyond childhood write a detective novel. The police department is also constantly missing important information. Like I’m not quite sure why a book about them should be written.

Not my cup of tea

I did not find the story interesting, difficult to follow and the characters not likeable. I honestly kept going hoping it would get better but unfortunately it did not.
