Media Reviews

`One of the best - if not the best - Scandinavian crime thrillers I've read.' RED
`All the hallmarks of a classic...a brutal crime, a missing child and an irresistible detective. this is crime writing at its most devilishly involving.' MARIE CLAIRE
`If the post-Stieg Larsson boom was ebbing, Kepler promises to revitalise the genre by bringing a sulphurous whiff of Hannibal Lecter to this case.' FINANCIAL TIMES
`A genuine chiller...commanding and deeply scarifying stuff.' INDEPENDENT
