Pepeljuge

Kristina Ohlsson

Kristina Ohlsson managed to achieve something that many tried before her - to raise the Swedish crime novel to a new, unexpected level.

With her first novel, Kristina Ohlsson has already positioned herself as a member of the elite circle of Scandinavian authors of crime novels, and with her elegant prose style, layered characters and intriguing plot, she won over critics and audiences not only in Scandinavia, but also throughout Europe. One day in the middle of a rainy Swedish summer, a little girl was kidnapped from a train compartment. The train stopped at a way station and the girl's mother went out on the platform to make a phone call, but she did not notice that the train had started. Train staff were warned to keep an eye out for the child who remained asleep, but when the train pulled into Stockholm Central Station the girl was gone, and despite dozens of potential witnesses, no one saw what happened. Inspector Alex Recht and his team, joined by criminal Fredrika Bergman, were assigned to solve the case, which at first appeared to be a typical example of a custody battle between separated parents. But when they find the corpse of a child with the word "unwanted" written on its forehead in the north of Sweden, the case soon turns into a nightmare for the investigative team - the pursuit of a diabolically intelligent and cruel killer.
