For fans of Katrine Engberg and Lars Kepler, the second chilling novel in Anne Mette Hancocks #1 bestselling Danish crime series is a psychological whirlwind that explores the nature of truth and what it means when we can no longer trust what we know to be real. When 10-year-old Lukas disappears from his Copenhagen school, police investigators discover that the boy had a peculiar obsession with pareidoliaa phenomenon that makes him see faces in random things. A photo on his phone posted just hours before his disappearance shows an old barn door that resembles a face. Journalist Heloise Kaldan thinks she recognizes the barnbut from where? When Lukes blood-flecked jacket is found in the moat at Copenhagens Citadel, DNA evidence points to Thomas Strand, an ex-soldier suffering from severe PTSD. But then Strand turns up dead in his apartment, shot in the head execution style. What did the last person to see Lukas really witness that morning in the school yard? Was it really Lukas, or an optical illusion? Can you ever truly trust your eyes?

I randomly picked this up and need to read the prequel now! A journalist, a detective, and the subject of ptsd…seeing things whilst subconsciously grasping for patterns. Loved the book. Good if you are a fan of Scandinavian-noir and need a new lead.

The next book in Hancock‘s series featuring the journalist Heloise Kaldan and police sergeant Erik Schafer centers around a new case- a ten year old boy has gone missing from school. The plot takes some surprising turns and I liked aspects of this one even more than the first book. I wish that Finn‘s character has been handled differently though- that troubled me and felt unresolved on top of that. I‘m curious to see where the series goes next!

(I'm starting with reviewing my September books, while also catching up with my August books)

I didn't plan to read the second volume of this crime series, but it just came in handy, and now I'm glad I did continue, anyways. Hancock develops her characters, and has also made progress when it comes to story telling. I was more caught up in the plot than before, and liked the characters more. Guess, I'll now also read volume three.

Twainy I‘m in the same boat!! Where did August go?! 4y
