The Stranger
ByPublisher Description
A local woman is killed in a tragic car crash, but it isn’t a clear-cut drunk driving case. The victim’s blood contains high alcohol levels, but she rarely drank a drop. Meanwhile, a reality TV show begins shooting in the town, and as cameras shadow the stars’ every move, tempers start to flare. When a drunken party ends with an unpopular contestant’s murder, all eyes turn to the cast and crew. Could there be a murderer among them?
The ratings spike as the country tunes into a real-life murder mystery. Detective Patrik Hedstrom finds himself increasingly unable to focus on the strange circumstances of the first case, but what if that holds the key to a series of other unsolved cases across Sweden?
Under the unforgiving media spotlight, Patrik tackles his toughest investigation yet.

“Lots of little cliff hangers as the detectives piece things together. The last 20 pages the ball drops and all the bits fall into place. My only gripe is the unrelated side stories that add nothing to the plot and nothing to the characters. It was time wasting page filler, boooo.”Sarah 🫖📖🫶

“I'm still giving it four stars, but it just wasn't as good as her first three. It was slow to get going and unrelated side stories (i.e. Mellberg's personal drama) were tedious. About half way through the book picked up and started to have the spark that made me love her first three books. Yes, it's VERY easy to figure out who the killer is, but Läckberg does keep decent suspense as to why and what the connection is. There are a few surprises I didn't see coming. She does a bit of a cliffhanger into her next book which I'd already planned on reading so I don't mind, but usually I hate them.”
