Eva is walking by the river with her seven-year-old daughter when they catch sight of a man's body in the water.

But the trail has gone cold. Until, one night, Eva receives a phone call...

Rezension zu „In the Darkness “
"A compelling read" -- Sean Farrell Irish Sunday Independent "Vintage Fossum" -- Henry Sutton Daily Mirror "It is Karin Fossum's wry observations of human frailty and the warmth with which she portrays even her flawed characters - that make this book such a pleasure to read. It's rare for me to find a book that I love so much I can't put it down, but this was one of them" -- Penny Hancock "The latest offering from the "Norwegian queen of crime" is a novel of mighty power. In The Darkness, the first Inspector Sejer novel, is intricately crafted with undeniable pedigree" -- Ruth Dugdall "In the Darkness had me hooked from the start. Fossum's writing is insightful and descriptive without being showy. There are no tricks or cliff hangers, just confident storytelling, refreshingly free from sudden bursts of implausibility. Her characters feel like real people, living in a real world, where money is tight and motivations are murky" -- Julie Corbin
