Summary
A trip behind the Iron Curtain would change their lives forever....
It begins in 1969. Six young people arrive in Uppsala. Different circumstances push the three young couples together, and, over the course of a few years, they become friends. But a summer trip through Eastern Europe changes everything, and, when their time at Uppsala University is over, it also signals the end of something else.
Years later, a lecturer at Lund University is found dead at the bottom of a cliff in the woods close to Kymlinge. And chillingly, it is the very same spot where one of the Uppsala students died 35 years before.
Detective Inspector Gunnar Barbarotti takes on this ominous case of history repeating itself and is forced to confront an increasingly grave reality.
The Lonely Ones is the fourth novel of Håkan Nesser’s quintet about Inspector Gunnar Barbarotti.

One of the best!
This one is among the three best audio books I have ever listened to. I enjoyed every line of it and I'm sad I finished it today.

Coffee & Pathos
This is the first book in the series I’ve listened to. Be aware that gang rape by four soldiers or police is described in one chapter. The detectives don’t really solve the mystery of two deaths at the same place, there’s a confession at the end. This is a psychological character study of six friends, besides the two detectives. It is well written and disturbing. A melancholy affecting book. By the end you will probably see how the pieces fitted together before the reveal, but this is of no consequence.

Really enjoyable
I rarely review books but I just love Hakans style of writing. His characters are so interesting, human, so detailed....it all just pootles along with crikey moments. My absolute favourite crime writer along with Robert Galbraith.
