The Lost Boy

Erica Hedstrom and her sister Anna survived the crash they were involved in, however Anna lost her baby while Erica's twin boys survived the Caesarian section following the accident.  Anna is experiencing depression, shutting out her husband Dan.  Erica's husband, Patrik had been rushed to the hospital just before the sister's automobile accident with an apparent heart attack.  He is slowly returning to work.

A short time after returning to his police duties, Patrik is called out to the scene of a murder.  A man has been shot in the back of the head in his flat.  As the investigation progresses, the more of a mystery the victim becomes.  Could the finding of some cocaine by three seven year old boys in a litter bin outside the home of the victim lead to a break in the case?

With the new evidence in place, author Camilla Lackberg picks up the pace in this murder mystery.  New twists are thrown into the plot leading to a surprising conclusion.  I was completely engrossed in this book, unable to put it down.  Lackberg is a top notch mystery writer.
