Synopsis

Shortly after Inspector Anita Sundström's mother's death, Anita is called to an apartment where an eighty-year-old man with dementia has tried to kill his wife. The case sparks off a renewed interest in the death of her father, who was lost in the 1994 MS Estonia ferry disaster. It's not long before she discovers that she's stumbled into a tangled web of conspiracy theories surrounding the tragedy, and the unstable and violent dawn of a newly independent Estonia.

At the same time, Anita's also involved in an investigation into the murder of a prominent member of Malmö's Pakistani community. When she's sidelined by her nemesis, Alice Zetterberg, she becomes more determined to discover the reasons behind her father's fate. She soon finds herself entering very dangerous waters that sweep her to Tallin, Stockholm, and Oxford in search of answers that will finally give her closure in the seventh of the bestselling series of Anita Sundström crime mysteries.

I believe this to be one of the better stories in this series. The main characters are now well known and are quite familiar (ie. you know what to expect from them and how they will react in some circumstances).

Goodreads review by John

I've read most of the others in the series, perhaps all, not quite sure. The first in the series had a real twist at the end, difficult to repeat. I can't honestly recall the worth or not of the others in the series. Anita, the Swedish detective who's our hero, is an impetuous and driven woman, whic......more
