It begins with a nursery rhyme. Nineteen minutes later you die…

The sixth gripping thriller in Lars Kepler’s bestselling series featuring Joona Linna. Perfect for fans of Stieg Larsson and Jo Nesbo.

There’s a face at the window.
A masked stranger stands in the shadow of a garden, watching his first victim through the window. He will kill him slowly – play him a nursery rhyme – make him pay.

A killer in your house.
The police offer ex-Detective Joona Linna a chance to clear his name: help Superintendent Saga Bauer track down the vicious killer terrorising Stockholm, before he strikes again.

Only one man can stop him.
Now Joona stands between a disturbed predator and its prey. He must catch a killer who hunts in the shadows and who is dangerously close to losing control…

The voices given to the main characters, in particular Joona Lina, are quite at odds with the characters as written. They sound slightly lame and stupid.

Terrible voice characterization

I love when I find a series that I can binge on and this is exactly that. Real life is postponed because I can't stop listening.
I applaud the authors. Its not easy to keep a good series with each book just making you want to know "What's next? The charachter development and scene building transports me right there like a voyeur watching everything unfold. The narration is perfectly matched and takes the story to another level (even when some of the accents are a bit dodge) 😳
Gripping, thrilling, pulse racing stuff, so hit that button and be prepared to leave real life stuff for a while and enjoy the ride.

Just keeps getting better and better!

This instalment in the Joona Linna series started off very slowly for me, but once it found it's stride, it was another brilliant addition. The other issue I had with this instalment is around one of the sex scenes. I've found some of the spicy scenes bizarre and unwarranted throughout the series as a whole, but this hit new heights with the 'glory hole' story arc - once you've listened you will understand.

The book, once it got going, hit the usual gripping pace and provided a mystery suspect whose identity and motive I struggled to guess till close to the end.

Not my favourite of the series, but still great.
