Fast-paced mystery centers on Inspector Kari Vaara as he investigates a most horrific murder of a beautiful Somali immigrant. Vaara fears the sadistic killing may be a hate crime. A quick arrest seems eminent but as the body count rises, Vaara finds more suspects in this intricate plot. Thompson realistically describes Lapland during kaamos – two weeks of complete darkness and the depth of winter with this effect on people. This is a very difficult mystery to read due to the very detailed graphic account of this gruesome killing and others. '
Not a read for the faint of heart.
A debut book worthy of its Anthony Award nominee.
Lucifer’s Tears, a 2nd Inspector Vaara mystery, is already out.
Available as a book, large print book and audiobook
