Unwanted
Unwanted | Kristina Ohlsson
In the middle of a rainy Swedish summer, a little girl is abducted from a crowded train. Despite hundreds of potential witnesses, no one noticed when the girl was taken. Her mother, left behind at the previous station, alerted the crew immediately. But as the train pulled into Stockholm Central Station, the girl was nowhere to be seen. To Inspector Alex Recht of the Stockholm police, this looks like a classic custody row. But none of the evidence adds up and young Investigative Analyst Fredrika Bergman is convinced the case is far more complex than her boss is prepared to admit.So when the missing child is found dead in the far north of Sweden, with the word UNWANTED scribbled on her forehead, the rule book is finally thrown out of the window. Now on the trail of a ruthless murderer with a terrifying agenda, will Alex and Fredrika manage to put aside their differences and work together to find the killer, before it's too late? A true Scandinavian page-turner, Unwanted is packed with suspense, authentic police procedure and psychological depth

Denna är också helt ok. Lite fånigt när personer runt utredarna har länkar in i utredningen - hur sannolikt är det? Men dessa ljudböcker funkar bra för mig att springa till.

The story had promise but it turned out to be disappointing. Unsympathetic characters, unbelievably dense police detectives and a reveal that was an anticlimax. Rating: 2/5.

Ganska medelmåttig och stundtals förutsägbar deckare. Obehagliga brott. Men den är spännande nog för att jogga till - och jag kommer att jogga vidare till nästa bok i serien. Gillar också att barnen och jag läser samma författare. Men jag uppskattade mer Mysteriet på Hester Hill som både jag och en av mina döttrar läst och gillat.

Fredrika Bergman & Alex Recht # 1 This is a police procedural/thriller told from multiple perspectives. The main characters are well developed and the story is interesting. I thought the pacing was good until the police figured it out and then it was a little rushed. Overall, I enjoyed it and will pick up the next one. #litsyreadingchallenge #writtenbysomeoneyourage #LRC16

Kristina Ohlsson is one of my favourite #nordicnoir writers. This book starts the Fredrika Bergman and Alex Recht series and it's very good. I like the other books in this series also. They are possibly even better than The Unwanted.

Martta @Gissy I'd start with this one. It's the beginning of Fredrika Bergman series. 7y

While this one took me a while to read, it wasn't because of the story. I really liked Fredrika and the other members of the team. I liked how we get to know more about each of them throughout the book. The crimes were heartbreaking to read and an intriguing to follow as Frederika and the team solved it. And, of course, I love a Swedish setting! Looking forward to more by this author!

Slightly predictable in many ways, but very intriguing. Better than the third novel in the series.
