About this listen

A woman’s dangerous career comes to a chilling end in this spellbinding thriller by Viveca Sten, bestselling author of In the Heat of the Moment....

The body of world-famous journalist Jeanette Thiels is discovered the day after Christmas, frozen in a snow-covered garden just steps from her hotel on Sandhamn Island. Detective Thomas Andreasson finds it highly unlikely that it was some bizarre accident. After all, the relentless war-zone correspondent was no stranger to conflict and controversy - both professional and, of late, very personal. Who would want to see her dead is another story.

Enlisting the help of attorney Nora Linde, his longtime friend on holiday, Thomas is anxious for the answers. But he and Nora don’t have to look far. The clues are leading them closer to home than they imagined. Jeanette may have made a career out of exposing corruption at the highest levels of world power, but she was also a woman with secrets of her own, and they’re coming to light on Sandhamn. For Thomas and Nora, unearthing the deeply rooted deceptions behind Jeanette’s death could now put those closest to her in harm’s way, too.

The performance was good, but the characters have changed everything but their names. The story was banal and far fetched, with the characters' bias against the "New Sweden" movement without even exploring why it had gained momentum (mass immigration) not even discussed. The "villains" were two dimensional caricatures, and it beggared belief that a police procedural should conveniently ignore such matters as interviewing minors in the absence of a responsible adult, unwarranted breaking, entry, and search, and leaps of faith as to the identity of the prime suspect in the beating up of the policeman who committed the illegal search. That the identity of the people eventually shown to be the miscreants turned out to be at the top of the anti-immigration organisation of which the author so clearly disapproves is just too convenient. The motive for the initial murder, by the way, does not ring true. As I said, this was a major disappointment in comparison with the earlier novels in the series, which were excellent.

Not as good as the previous ones in the series.
