This is a tightly-written,carefully plotted story with amazing depths which is likely to remain with you long after you close the bookA compelling readVintage FossumIt is Karin Fossum's wry observations of human frailty and the warmth with which she portrays even her flawed characters - that make this book such a pleasure to read.It's rare for me to find a book that I love so much I can't putit down,but this was one of themThe latest offering from the "Norwegian queen of crime"is a novel of mighty power. In The Darkness,the first Inspector Sejer novel,is intricately crafted with undeniable pedigree
