Publisher's summary

The tiny Swedish island of Sandhamn has always been a haven for lawyer Nora Linde. With trouble brewing in her marriage, she finds its comforts more welcome than ever, even in the depths of winter. That is, until her two young sons trip across a severed arm in the woods.

The boys' gruesome discovery will once again connect Nora with her childhood friend Thomas Andreasson, now a local police detective. When the limb is identified as belonging to a twenty-year-old woman who disappeared without a trace months earlier, what had been a missing persons case takes on a whole new urgency.

Nora and Thomas delve deeply into the woman's final hours, each of them wrestling not only with the case but with the private demons it awakens in them. As they do, they'll find themselves drawn into the history of Sandhamn and the tensions that have been simmering just below the surface for more than a hundred years.

Well...

since again a good story that goes back and forth between long ago and present.

I detest the ending. The author just abruptly ends the story. Just as she did in her previous books. Just for the sake of selling another book.
I won't be reading any more of her books.

Woo boy, this one gives you all the feels!

I have been enjoying this series and following the lives of police detective Thomas and his childhood best friend, Nora. This one was told from the POVs of several ppl, including one from 1/2 century before. As usual, the author makes you wonder how the different stories will be relevant to the murder investigation. The old POV will break your heart! When all is said and done, it all comes together to solve the mystery.

Good series, interesting location

Would you try another book from Viveca Sten and/or Angela Dawe?

Yes Viveca Sten, no aangela Dawe

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Not on the edge of my seat, but maintained my interest.

Would you be willing to try another one of Angela Dawe’s performances?

NO!!!!

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

I don't go to movies

Any additional comments?

I really like the series but I will read the next book on my Kindle if it is read by Angela Dawe. This series needs a Swedish accent and someone who can do men well, our hero sounded like a Disney Princess.

Revenge is best served cold.

Nora Linde thinks of Sandhamn Island as a haven. With her marriage falling apart and her husband having an affair she takes her sons for a retreat on the island.

Playing in the woods her sons find a buried arm buried under the ground. The search is on for the murderer of a twenty year old woman who disappeared months earlier.

A great mystery series with intricate details and characters. Angela Dawes I a great narrator.

A good story but difficult to follow.

Had a hard time keeping track of the individual characters since involved families over 4 generations and switched between decades throughout the book.
