Riassunto

Professor Bertram von Ohler has been awarded the Nobel Prize for medicine. This news causes problems in his otherwise quiet upper-class neighborhood in Uppsala, Sweden, as not everybody is happy with the choice of winner. Mysterious incidents start to occur. 'Boyish pranks' say the police, but what follows is certainly not innocent amusement. Detective Inspector Ann Lindell becomes involved in the case and immediately is transported back into her own past.

Su questo libro

Recensione:

Eriksson adds each piece of his complex murder puzzle to the picture with masterly control, and the heroine at the center of it all is compelling. "Kirkus Reviews on Black Lies, Red Blood"

Eriksson packs his story with numerous characters, multiple plotlines told in different voices, and an ending from which no one but the reader emerges a winner. "Library Journal on The Demon of Dakar"

There are plenty of shades of gray in this tale told with wry humor, compassion and a fine understanding that in life often things cannot be resolved either neatly or completely. "Publishers Weekly on The Demon of Dakar"

A must for the growing contingent of Swedish crime-fiction devotees. "Booklist on The Demon of Dakar"

A challenging and rewarding mystery. "Kirkus Reviews on The Hand that Trembles"" --.
