Welcome to Litsy!

I just loved the story in this book. A great storyline that involved a current storyline and a storyline during the war involving Erica‘s mother. Glad to see more of Erica in this book, and also good to get more of the other characters. Great to see Mellberg in a new light. A quite complex storyline which allowed for plenty of theorising by the reader and that‘s what I love in books in this genre. Totally recommend this book! ðŸ˜� #NordicNoir

Started book 5 in the Patrick Hedstrom series. #NordicNoir

Providing I finish this before the end of Monday I will meet one of my goals for #MidYearRush, by reading four #NordicNoir books during the Readathon.

An old man is found murdered in his home. Patrik Hedström is on paternity leave, so his colleagues have to solve it without him.

At the same time Erica Falck finds some things after her mother, like her diaries and a Nazi medal, and starts looking into that. We have in the other books heard about how cold and distant her mother had been, so I liked following Erica on her journey to find out more about her mother.

My reading after day 1 of #24B4Monday

I read a chapter in S&S and 120p in the tagged book.

Finally made it to the balcony to read outside. I can‘t remember the last time I did that.

Catching up on #NordicNoir now that the library is open again and I can borrow books. This is the book that should have been finished in early May.

Erica Falcon finds a Nazi medal among her late mother‘s things. She decides to investigate where it came from. She visits a history teacher who was a friend of her mother. She gets no answers and 2 days later he is found dead. Her husband, Det. Patrik Hedstrom, is on paternity leave but does get involved with the murder investigation. Could her mother‘s secrets endanger their lives. Read this book to find out! Looking forward to next installment!

I‘m listening to this audio! Very good book!

I enjoyed the book! My fave in the series this far. Erica is working while P is taking care of their daughter. She starts researching her troubled mother‘s past only to find out family secrets and the reason her mother never really loved her. The historical part takes us back to the 40s, which means Nazis. Has Mellberg finally gone soft and fallen in love? P‘s ex-wife is back in town. Naturally the ending gives clues to the next book.

Picked up these for me from my building‘s book exchange yesterday along with some gifts for others. Are any required reading or should I just put them back? My step daughter‘s are half Swedish so I am trying to read more books by Swedish authors such as Lackberg. The Weldon one had a short story that looked interesting and to be honest I only picked up the Moriarty one because her sister is a writer I enjoy.

Searched for available audiobooks from my library narrated by Simon Vance. This one was, so I‘m giving it a go while on my lunchtime walk by the office.

Today's author spotlight: (Jean Edith) Camilla Läckberg (Eriksson)! The 43-year-old was born in Fjällbacka, Sweden. Her books are translated into 40+ languages and found in 60 countries. Every one of her books have been #1 bestsellers in Sweden, and she was Europe's best-selling female author in 2010. She's sold more books than Stieg Larsson. She is engaged, for a third time, to MMA fighter and author Simon Sköld. #AuthorPotpourri #TheMoreYouKnow

Read this 528-page book at the beach in two days. It was not what I expected, more of a murder mystery. But fun to read and I loved that the author is described as "the most profitable native author in Swedish history." Take that, Girl with the Dragon Tattoo! 5 out of 5.

A heartbreaking revelation about a deep secret mixed with murder & new love. One of my favorite books in the series!
