Publisher's Summary

Sandhamn Island’s archipelago is a beautiful place to visit. For a mother on the run, it’s the only place to hide in a novel of escalating suspense by Viveca Sten, bestselling author of Still Waters.

Building a case against Andreis Kovač is a risky strategy for prosecutor Nora Linde. A violent key player in Stockholm’s drug trade and untouchable when it comes to financial crimes, he has the best defense money can buy. To topple Andreis’s empire, Nora’s working a different angle. It’s personal. Nora’s critical witness is Andreis’s wife, Mina - if she’ll testify. 

Mina has suffered her husband’s rage too long. It’s nearly cost her her life. Still carrying the traumas of the Bosnian War, Andreis can be triggered like an explosive. He must be taken down. And as the trial looms, Mina and her infant son must disappear. The police have found her a safe place to hide on Runmarö Island in Sandhamn’s archipelago. But there’s no shelter from a man as powerful and merciless as Andreis. Especially when he’s being crossed. 

His campaign of terror has just begun. He’s prepared to crush anyone who stands in his way: Mina, Nora, and everyone they know and love. Andreis is coming for them. This time, Nora is on the defense.

Love the series but...

Love the series but feel like this one was just phoned in so to speak. This might be my last book from this series as the story lines are getting too far fetched. I hate to be critical given I’m not a writer myself but I would thought her editor at least
could have helped her on some of the more obvious plot holes.

Not the best of the series

This was one where you find yourself asking the characters if they are just stupid a number of times through the story. The story relied upon the ill thought actions to carry the plot when I felt more clever options were available

This one tackles a sensitive topic, and does it well

An abused wife just happens to become part of Nora’s case against a crime boss. Thomas is torn between his exhausting job and his broken family. Good story.

Not her best

I've really been enjoying this series, especially the last two books. This book, however, was a big disappointment. How many terrible decisions can every character in this book make? Even Nora and Thomas seem to have lost their common sense. Many of the characters in the other book were absent and it almost seemed like this book was written by someone else.

Angela Dawe is incredible with the variety of voices she can do so well. She's one of the best I've heard. My only complaint is that she read to fast for my ears. I'm glad I can adjust the narration speed because she is perfect at 85% speed.

A hard read, due to the subject matter.

I struggled with the level of violence but made it through. Justice prevailed at a cost.
