How close can you get to the truth...before you become the target?

Jerry Morner lives quietly in a cabin by the old quarry, hurting no one. Or that's what he wants people to believe. It takes one spark and a can of petrol to expose the truth.

The fire is deadly. Not for Jerry, but for the two strangers found burnt to death inside.

His son starts to search for answers. But he soon realises that some secrets are better left to the dead.

I've just finished this book after reading a review on a Scandanavian book review site, and I thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. It is beautifully written and paints a vivid picture of life on a rural island in Sweden. The characters are believeable and Johan Theorin successfully manages to interweave the plot with their personal lives which actually makes you care about what happens to them. I also really liked the references to folklore and elves, in fact it made me wish that elves really did exist!! There are plenty of subplots to keep you guessing to the end, it is enhanced by the excellent narration (and voice) of Nigel Anthony and I would thoroughly recommend this book to anyone.

An enchanting book with a dark side

I think the book description is misleading in that I thought it would be first and foremost a crime thriller/whodunit., and it isn't really. The crime story runs all the way through, but really this book is about a set of characters and their stories and relationships and connections with each other, and they are well written so that you care about them and what will become of them. This it's a great book, but not an edge of your seat thriller if that's what you're hoping for. Nigel Anthony is wonderful of course -I found this title by searching for him as I love his narration.

Not a thriller

Would you listen to The Quarry again? Why?

Yes . Need his other books on audible.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The old man . But they all make for a great book .

Which scene did you most enjoy?

All of them.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes.

Any additional comments?

Please read or listen to Johan Theorins books . He & Nesbo are my favourite Scandinavian authors . He's not as prolific as Jo Nesbo & writes very differently but he is also a master of his art . Only sad that just 2 of his 4 books are available on audible. Can't wait for the new book that I've pre-ordered to read .

The brilliant Johan Theorin .

I read Johan Theorins quarter series and really loved the combination of mystery , suspense and a little supernatural. The audio version of the Quarry was really enjoyable. The narrator was just right for this tale and I found myself riveted .
I really hope audible do the other three books my favourite being the Darkest Room . they are each set in the different seasons of the year on Oland .

Absorbing story
