Marked for Revenge: A Thriller
(Adobe EPUB eBook, OverDrive Read)
Meanwhile, the police are zeroing in on the elusive head of the long-entrenched Swedish narcotics trade, who goes by the name The Old Man. No one has ever encountered this diabolical mastermind in person; he is like a shadow, but a shadow who commands extreme respect. Who is this overarching drug lord? Berzelius craves to know his identity, even as she clandestinely tracks Danillo, who has threatened to out her for who she really is. She knows she must kill him first, before he can reveal her secrets. If she fails, she will lose everything.
As she prepares for the fight of her life, Berzelius discovers an even more explosive and insidious betrayal—one that entangles her inextricably in the whole sordid network of crime.
The second in a trilogy of fast-paced, high-stakes thrillers by the international bestselling author Emelie Schepp, Marked for Revenge involves the international drug trade and child trafficking and features the brilliant, enigmatic prosecutor Jana Berzelius, whose own dark past has, until recently, been hidden even from herself.

Starred review from December 12, 2016
In Swedish author Schepp’s outstanding second novel, her beleaguered group of Swedish police and prosecutors, who closed a refugee-smuggling case with drug connections in 2016’s Marked for Life, face serious personal problems. Public prosecutor Jana Berzelius battles a sinister past she can’t quite remember; decent, conscientious Det. Chief Insp. Henrik Levin is anxious about the impending birth of his baby; forensics expert Anneli Lindgren and her domestic partner, Chief Investigator Gunnar Öhrn, worry about their troubled 20-year relationship; and Det. Insp. Mia Bolander’s flippancy may get her thrown off the team. Meanwhile, the National Crime Squad threatens them with a massive reorganization at the same time that a new case involving drug smuggling and murder, masterminded by the enigmatic Old Man, arouses old animosities. Schepp sure-handedly brings her characters to unhappy life in a police procedural that lays bare the most sordid aspects of immigrant-related crime. Agent: Lena Stjernström, Grand Agency (Sweden).

December 15, 2016
A Swedish prosecutor discovers that the recent influx of illegally trafficked Thai girls leads back to a deadly man in her past whom she's hell-bent on killing. Jana Berzelius, who demonstrated in Marked for Life (2016) that she's equally adept with her fists or a sharp knife as she is with legal concepts in the courtroom, is still on the hunt for Danilo Pena, one of the only men who can provide a link back to her upbringing as a child soldier. Now a respectable prosecutor in Norrkoping, Sweden, Berzelius takes a special interest when a teenage girl is found on a train from Denmark, suffering from a heroin overdose after swallowing multiple capsules of the drug in her native Thailand. It seems she's come to Sweden with a friend but refuses to disclose any details. The Norrkoping police, led by DCI Henrik Levin, whose mind is preoccupied by his pregnant wife, try to track down any leads to this girl, known only as Pim. Soon another body crops up, a 20-year-old Swedish drug user named Robin Stenberg, who has a connection to Berzelius she'd like to keep hidden. All the while, Levin and his team are being overseen by the National Crime Squad from Stockholm while they search for a ringleader known only as "The Old Man" and Berzelius relentlessly pursues Danilo, both within and outside the law. The storylines coalesce a bit too easily, and, since this is the second in a trilogy, Schepp allows herself to simply leave plot points unresolved, much to readers' consternation. Though the protagonist, for whom the term "prickly" could have been invented, rarely rises above the level of the stereotypical action heroine, she's starting to thaw and show just the hint of a personality.COPYRIGHT(2016) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
