The Harbor | Katrine Engberg

pick

This is the 3rd book in the Korner and Werner series which is set in Copenhagen Denmark. Fifteen-year-old Oscar Dreyer-Hoff disappears. The police think it is a typical runaway case but his family fear the worst as Oscar left a peculiar note. I found the reference quote to Oscar Wilde's Picture of Dorian Gray interesting. Detectives Jeppe Kørner and Anette Werner uncover lots of secret happenings which keep the pages turning.

EadieB Jeppe and Anette also have to deal with their personal relationships which sometimes interferes with their investigations. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series. If you like fast-paced thrillers then I am sure you will enjoy this series. I would like to thank NetGalley and Gallery/Scott Press for a copy of the ebook for an honest review. 3y

The Butterfly House | Katrine Engberg

Day 3 - #12Booksof2020 #ShareTheLove @Andrew65

This is the 2nd book in the Detectives Jeppe Kørner and Anette Werner series which takes place in Copenhagen Denmark. A paperboy discovers the naked body of a dead woman, lying in a fountain. All the blood has been drained from her body. Another body is found again lying in water with the same MO. Are the murders related to The Butterfly House, a psychiatric hospital for juveniles?

EadieB Jeppe is recovering from a painful divorce and Anette is on maternity leave. Anette is at home bored and decides to do a little freelance sleuthing. After a series of twists and turns, she ends up helping Jeppe solve the murders. The book kept me guessing all the way through and the ending proved to be a surprise to me. I look forward to reading the 3rd book in the series and highly recommend this one. 4y

Nordic mystery Denmark. Katrine Engberg's debut introduces us to Jeppe Korner and Anette Werner, 2 police detectives from Copenhagen. woman is brutally murdered. Korner & Werner discover link to Julie‘s murder which is Esther, her landlord, who describes murder in her novel.
Engberg's writing is good. character of Jeppe Korner very interesting but flawed. plenty of twists. ending was surprising. recommend thanks Gallery Scott Press/NetGalley
