Description
#1 INTERNATIONAL BEST SELLER • Detective Joona Linna is on the trail of a kidnapper who targets teenage girls and makes their worst nightmares a reality.
"Dark, disturbing, and chillingly relentless. Picture Hannibal Lecter sitting down to channel Stieg Larsson and then dial it way, way up!" —Brad Thor, #1 New York Times best-selling author of Black Ice
Sixteen-year-old Jenny Lind is kidnapped in broad daylight on her way home from school and thrown into the back of a truck. She’s taken to a dilapidated house, where she and other girls face horrors far beyond their worst nightmares. Though they’re desperate to escape, their captor foils everyone of their attempts.
Five years later, Jenny’s body is found hanging in a playground, strung up with a winch on a rainy night. As the police are scrambling to find a lead in the scant evidence, Detective Joona Linna recognizes an eerie connection between Jenny’s murder and a death declared a suicide years before. And when another teenage girl goes missing, it becomes clear to Joona that they’re dealing with a serial killer—and his murderous rampage may have just begun.

Starred review from November 8, 2021
In Kepler’s stellar eighth Killer Instinct novel (after 2020’s Lazarus), Joona Linna, a detective with Sweden’s National Operations Unit, looks into the case of a woman found hanged in a Stockholm playground. Her killer attached a winch to a jungle gym before slipping a wire noose around her neck. The discovery that the victim is Jenny Lind, who vanished five years earlier when she was a 16-year-old, adds additional mysteries—her whereabouts since her disappearance and why her captor decided to kill her now. Unfortunately, the one witness who may have seen the murder while walking his dog in the middle of the night suffers from memory lapses following an ice-fishing accident in which his daughter died years earlier. Linna comes to believe Lind was murdered by a serial killer, who may have more women in captivity. The ability of Kepler (the pen name of Alexander and Alexandra Ahndoril) to ratchet up the tension en route to a stunning reveal and an eminently fair solution is remarkable. This merits comparisons with the best of Thomas Harris. Agent: Niclas Salomonsson, Salomonsson Agency (Sweden).

- content: Narrator Saul Reichlin contrasts the graphically described crimes in this Swedish mystery with the humble, soft-spoken police detective Joona Linna as he searches for the perpetrator. Listeners meet the families of the murdered young girls and the devoted couple, Pamela and Martin Norstrom, who might hold the key to the tortures and killings. The superb text and range of characters are enhanced by Reichlin's skillful delivery. Linna and his crew painstakingly sift through many false clues as victims continue to disappear. The rendering of a police raid on a club that feeds on man's baser instincts and the scenes of bloody shoot-outs are harrowing. Linna's humor and ability to unselfconsciously plead with his superiors to get what he wants add charm and levity. There is a conclusion--but also a cliff-hanger.

This twisty, pitch-dark story is the eighth book in the "Killer Instinct" series by Kepler, the pen name of husband and wife team Alexander and Alexandra Coelho Ahndoril. Detective Joona Linna is up against an elusive serial killer, who abducts young women and holds them imprisoned in a secluded place. Like every Kepler novel, this one begins with an explosive chapter that often entails graphic descriptions of horrendous violence and brutality, which is not for the faint of heart. The plot is dense with multiple POV narratives that quickens the pace. Yet, it is hard to distinguish and remember which character is speaking. The grisly depictions of torture were deadened by the narrator's voice. VERDICT Read this one instead of listening to it.--Anna Clark
