Camilla Läckberg zręcznie splata współczesne wydarzenia z przejmującą opowieścią o losach młodej Szwedki żyjącej w pierwszej połowie lat czterdziestych ubiegłego stulecia. Szwecji udało się uniknąć losu sąsiedniej, okupowanej Norwegii, a społeczeństwo szwedzkie było podzielone na tych, którzy pomagali swoim pobratymcom, i tych, którzy sprzyjali niemieckim okupantom.

Saga kryminalna Camilli Läckberg osiągnęła światowy sukces czytelniczy. To nie tylko mroczne thrillery, ale również doskonałe powieści obyczajowe, znakomicie oddające klimat współczesnej szwedzkiej prowincji. Od lat zajmują czołowe miejsca na europejskich listach bestsellerów. Książki Läckberg przetłumaczono na ponad 35 języków. Jesienią 2011 roku rozpoczęły się zdjęcia do międzynarodowej produkcji filmowej „Morderstwa we Fjällbace”, osnutej na kanwie jej powieści.

Camilla Läckberg, jedna z najciekawszych szwedzkich pisarek, uznawana za mistrzynię skandynawskiego kryminału. Jest także autorką książeczki dla dzieci i dwóch książek kulinarnych.

The men who bossed the city were running scared. Elections were coming up and the voters were rallying behind Richardson Caldwell, an idealistic reformer with the old-fashioned notion that criminals belonged in jails instead of public offices.But then a staggering development struck at the hopes of Caldwell’s supporters. He was found drunk in his apartment, and beside him lay a murdered woman whose reputation had been notorious gossip for years.Caldwell was arrested and charged with murder. The cell door swung shut on his career and the hopes of the city for decent government.It was then that Sam Terrell, a newspaperman, began a determined inquiry into the life of the murdered girl, and into the forces to whom Caldwell’s arrest had meant a reprieve from ruin. The search was dangerous; but Terrell stuck at it stubbornly, convinced that his newspaper owed more to the community than sports news and comics.To this explosive situation William P. McGivern adds an illuminating dimension by examining with sympathy and power the question of how much a man owes the community in which he lives. Mr. McGivern’s compassionate talents have been seen in such novels as THE BIG HEAT, ROGUE COP, THE SEVEN FILE, etc. In NIGHT EXTRA, a story of passions and politics and people, he has reached a new superb level of suspense.

Even with all his years of experience, LAPD homicide detective Milo Sturgis knows there are crimes his skill and savvy cannot solve alone. That’s when he calls on brilliant psychologist Alex Delaware to read between the lines, where the darkest motives lurk. And if ever the good doctor’s insight is needed, it’s at the scene of a murder as baffling as it is brutal.

There’s no spilled blood, no evidence of a struggle, and, thanks to the victim’s missing face and hands, no immediate means of identification. And no telling why the disfigured corpse of a stranger has appeared in an upscale L.A. family’s home. Chet Corvin, his wife, and their two teenage children are certain the John Doe is unknown to them. Despite that, their cooperation seems guarded. And that’s more than Milo and Alex can elicit from the Corvins’ creepy next-door neighbor — a notorious cartoonist with a warped sense of humor and a seriously antisocial attitude.

As the investigation ensues, it becomes clear that this well-to-do suburban enclave has its share of curious eyes, suspicious minds, and loose lips. And as Milo tightens the screws on potential persons of interest — and Alex tries to breach the barriers that guard their deepest secrets — a strangling web of corrupted love, cold-blooded greed, and shattered trust is exposed. Though the grass may be greener on these privileged streets, there’s enough dirt below the surface to bury a multitude of sins. Including the deadliest.
