Richard von Knecht has fallen five stories from a building in Goteborg.
The ME tells DI Irene Huss and DS Sven Andersson that it is definitely
a homicide. As Andersson's team begins to piece together information
about the victim, it is discovered that he has a second son.
While
the team is in the end of the day meeting an explosion is heard. Just
as the meeting is winding up, they are told that the explosion was where
von Knecht's office was. Further investigation indicates that the von
Knecht's cleaning lady is missing. A charred body found at the site of
the explosion turns out to be the missing cleaning lady. Evidence also
points to there being a set of keys to von Knecht's home, office and
country estate. Police now fear that the life of his wife and son could
be in jeopardy.
Before long the Hell's Angels and a drug
scenario come into play. It takes some work for the team to tie it all
together. Author Helene Tursten has written an engaging murder
mystery. This was a book that was hard to lut down. I look forward to
reading sequels.
