12 of 2022. Another solid installment in this series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Seriesread2022

The 9th book in the series with Patrick and Erica set I'm Sweden. This is quite disturbing to be honest, quite a few TW. I deals with two cases one present day and the other from a few decades ago. Both are death of a young child. It was certainly gripping and tense and some of the endings I did guess.

I am currently reading these three books, still ploughing through Tove Ditlevsen book.

A girl who went missing 4 months ago, walks out of the woods and is hit by a car. She has been subjected to brutal treatment during her captivity and there are also 3 other girls who are still missing. Erica is writing a book and is in contact with a woman in jail who has a link to Patrik's case of missing girls.

Honestly this is a weak pick, a very weak one. I think this is her longest book in this series and I don‘t think I needed all of those pages.

We follow a timeline in 1671/2 during the witch prosecutions. And 30 yr old case and the present day where Tanumshede police gets a case with a dead child found in the same place as the older case.

The book looks into Sweden‘s immigration policy and racism.
