Produktbeschreibung
Investigator Jessica Niemi is in a race against time to find the link between a body with strange markings that has washed up on a frigid shore in Finland and two baffling disappearances in this terrifying new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Witch Hunter. Six months have passed since Jessica's encounter with the mysterious serial-killing coven of witches and the death of her mentor. Her nightmares about her mother and the witchcraft that undid her have only gotten worse, but she's doing what she can to stay focused. Her homicide squad, now under new leadership, has been given a murder case and a new series of disappearances to investigate. A young woman's corpse has washed up on an icy beach, and two famous Instagram influencers have gone missing at the same time. The missing influencers and the murdered woman all have ties to a sinister cult. Jessica finds an eerie painting-of a lighthouse on a remote island-as she investigates, and under the picture is a gruesome poem detailing a murder. The nightmares about her mother suddenly seem all too real, making Jessica wonder if the dead woman might be trying to tell her something about the killings. And as Jessica works frantically to solve her latest case, her horrific past comes roaring back and threatens to destroy her. Story Locale: Scandinavia Series Overview: The start of a riveting new series following occult crimes in Scandinavia.

Rezensionen
PRAISE FOR THE WITCH HUNTER:
'The Witch Hunter, translated with icy precision by Kristian London, is written in short, sharp, present-tense chapters, a technique which adds to its relentless tension. Flashbacks to earlier episodes in Jessica's life suggest that the strangeness currently unfolding is tied to her personal history. Discovering the how and why of it brings a resolution as bleak as anything Poe might have conjured' Wall Street Journal.
'If you only read one Nordic noir novel this autumn, make it The Witch Hunter - a chilling female-led thriller that will please fans of Lisbeth Salander and Stieg Larsson's Millennium trilogy' CultureFly.
'Seeck's riveting, multi-layered debut, blending masterful police procedural with a chilling exploration of the occult, kept me up all night, devouring it in one amazing gulp, and checking under the bed' Sara Blaedel, #1 international bestselling author.
'One of the best books I have ever read. Ever. Absolutely thrilling, well-written, and oh-so-hard to put down' Emilie Schepp, author of Slowly We Die.
'The Witch Hunter is everything I wish for in a thriller: exceptional story, exceptional characters, exceptional writing, and shocking twists - exceptional everything. I loved this book, and you will too' Chris Mooney, author of Blood World.
'One twist follows another ... Seeck imbues this riveting procedural with a deliciously creepy undertone' Publishers Weekly.
'Dark and intricate ... Vividly cinematic and impactful. Seeck has an uncanny ability to unspool reveals at just the right pace to get the reader's heart pounding as they make the connection at the same moment as the detective on page' Booklist.
'A disturbing tale of murder and madness' Kirkus Reviews…mehr
