Eva's Eye: An Inspector Sejer Mystery
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
Description
The debut mystery novel in the Inspector Sejer Series from Norway's award-winning author of Hell Fire and The Whisperer.
Eva Magnus and her daughter are out walking by the river when they make a grisly discovery: a man's body floating on the water's surface. Eva goes to call the police, but when she reaches the phone, she dials another number altogether for her own reasons. But when the police find the body anyway, Inspector Sejer and his team quickly determine that the man, Egil, died from a violent attack.
But Egil himself had been missing for months, and the trail to his killer is all but vanished. It's just as puzzling as another unsolved case on Sejer's desk: the murder of a prostitute, found dead just before Egil went missing. And as Sejer tries to piece together these two impossible cases, it soon appears that the two murders are connected. And if the Inspector can't figure out the culprit behind the crimes, someone else is going to pay with their life.
"No one can thoroughly chill the blood the way Karin Fossum can." —Los Angeles Times

Originally published in Norway in 1995, Fossum’s entertaining first Insp. Konrad Sejer mystery is finally available in English (after 2012’s The Caller, the eighth series entry to be published in the U.S.). While walking along the riverbank of an unnamed small town, divorced artist Eva Magnus and her seven-year-old daughter, Emma, spot a dead body floating in the river. In front of the inquisitive Emma, Eva pretends to call the police, but instead calls her father. When the police discover that the body is that of a murdered prostitute who used to be a friend of Eva’s, suspicions arise. Eva’s transition from struggling painter and single mother to something new and unpredictable will delight fans searching for the next diverting Scandinavian mystery. While Eva steals the center stage from Sejer, her increasingly fraught decisions give this dark police procedural warmth despite the frigid environs.

Expect high demand for the debut title in Fossum's popular series (first time available in English). No excuses for not meeting the compelling Norwegian Insp. Konrad Sejer now. [See Prepub Alert, 2/11/13.]
