Until Thy Wrath Be Past: A Rebecka Martinsson Investigation | Asa Larsson
5 posts | 11 read | 1 to read
Oprah.com raved that Asa Larsson's Rebecka Martinsson is a crime fighter who has all the needed gut insticts," and listed the series as "Mysteries Every Thinking Woman Should Read." In Until Thy Wrath Be Past the body of a young woman surfaces in the River Torne, in the far north of Sweden. Meanwhile, Rebecka Martinsson is working as a prosecutor in nearby Kiruna. Her sleep has been disturbed by haunting visions of a shadowy, accusing figure. Could the body be connected to the ghostly young woman in her dreams? Joining forces once again with Police Inspector Anna-Maria Mella, Rebecka is drawn into a murder and missing-person investigation that becomes entangled with old rumors of a German supply plane that mysteriously disappeared in 1943. Shame and secrecy shroud the locals' memories of the war, with Sweden's early collaboration with the Nazis still a raw wound. And on the windswept shore of a frozen lake lurks a faceless killer determined to keep the past buried forever beneath half a century's silent ice and snow. With its psychologically complex twists and turns, this harrowing thriller captivates from the very first page. From the Trade Paperback edition.

The focus centres on 2 brothers whose parents were involved in helping the nazi regime in Swedens neutral status. A good start to #20in4 @andrew65 hope all well Andrew

"This bloody film is just a gang of people lounging around on a park bench talking, going on and on nonstop," Robert yelled..... It's Friday night, for Christ's sake! What we need is a car chase or two, a few murders and a dollop of sex."
Pohjanen chuckled.
"I apologize," said Mella. "I got drunk one night and he made me pregnant."

I think this is the first #NordicNoir that I liked the murderer. He was so tortured by his family and he was wracked with guilt. Maybe, that is what made him relatable. He was remorseful.

Creepy crime: she sees dead people. Which is unfortunate for the criminals, given that she's the prosecutor.
