The Dark Path
The cold creeps in and death breathes behind the neck...
Do you remember what it was like? Attorney Rebecca Martinsson was traumatized by the murder of a disabled boy with whom she had become close. She spent some time recovering under the care of psychiatrists. Now he is trying to return to a normal life in his home village of Kurravaara above the Arctic Circle. She seems to have found peace in her new job at the prosecutor's office in nearby Kiruna. A few months later, a woman's body is found in a fishing shack on a frozen lake. For someone who was such a prominent figure in her lifetime, Inna Wattrang ended ignominiously. A spokeswoman for an international mining company was systematically tortured before her death. Police Inspector Anna-Maria Mella, who is in charge of the investigation, also asks Rebecca for help. Gradually, they uncover a disturbing story whose roots go deep into the past. It mixes ambition, corruption and perverse sexuality with loneliness and hope.
The third installment of the series with Rebecca Martinsson set in northern Sweden will delight fans of King and Crichton.
"Asa Larsson can write a scene that takes your breath away as well as she can get inside the minds of her characters." - Washington Post
"The Dark Path is such a varied book that it's hard to summarize. It has a sophisticated plot and features a diverse cast of characters. However, the author's style is clear and understandable. The Dark Path is a truly excellent book." - Maxine Clark, Eurocrime
Everything moves incredibly fast. He tapes her hands to the armrests and her feet to the legs of the chair. He doesn't cut or tear the tape, he runs it from one hand to the other and down to his feet in one piece, and when he's done, he drops it on the floor.
He'll stand in front of her.
"Please," he says. "You want money? I have..."
That's as far as he'll go. He punches her in the nose. It's like he turned on a tap. Warm blood runs down her face and down her neck. And she swallows and swallows. - excerpt from the book
