I love when I discover novels written by non-English authors because it gives so much more insight in their country and culture, in their education and how they experience their life.

Lately I’m becoming quite interested in nordic authors, and this book is clearly one of the finest that I’ve read this year.

It’s so atmospheric and the setting on the Norwegian winter is disturbing but also compelling.

The story it’s told in short chapters easy to follow and the mystery and domestic thriller it’s done at its best because I was so drawn into the plot that I finished it in one sitting.

The author has managed to create a dark investigation taken on a personal account after a chance encounter between Nina, our heroine and Mary, a missing person than is not who she assumes to be, so the enigmas and secrets add up with each chapter.

It’s atmospheric and a great psychological thriller that many lovers of the genres will appreciate.
