Charlo Torp no es un hombre afortunado. Aún llora la muerte de su mujer, ha perdido su trabajo y las acuciantes deudas de juego lo han distanciado de su hija adolescente. Desesperado, su solución pasa por el crimen. Así, se presenta en el apartamento de una anciana, flores en mano, con el plan de robarle una antigua cubertería de plata. Sin embargo, ella, Harriet Krohn, se resiste, lucha, y Charlo pierde definitivamente el control. A la mañana siguiente, el inspector Sejer es llamado a la escena del crimen. Harriet Krohn ha muerto, sus objetos de valor han desaparecido y la única pista en el piso es un ramo abandonado. Charlo Torp deberá hacer frente a un investigador que, hasta el momento, ha resuelto todos los casos que se le han asignado. La única pregunta es: ¿cuán lejos está dispuesto a llegar para dar un vuelco a su vida?

Early one September three friends spend the weekend at a remote cabin by Dead Water Lake. With only a pale moon to light their way, they row across the water in the middle of the night. But only two of them return. When the body of the third friend is discovered, Inspector Sejer is put in charge of the investigation.

Andreas's disappearance is a mystery to all, including his inseparable friend Zipp. But as much as the police question him, its not easy for Zipp to come forward with details of the last time he saw his friend: following an old woman into her home, brandishing his knife. Zipp waited anxiously outside but Andreas failed to reappear.

Don't Look Back heralds the arrival of an exotic new crime series featuring Inspector Sejer, a smart and enigmatic hero, tough but fair. The setting is a small, idyllic village at the foot of Norway's Kollen Mountain, where neighbors know neighbors and children play happily in the streets. But when the body of a teenage girl is found by the lake at the mountaintop, the town's tranquillity is shattered forever. Annie was strong, intelligent, and loved by everyone. What went so terribly wrong? Doggedly, yet subtly, Inspector Sejer uncovers layer upon layer of distrust and lies beneath the town's seemingly perfect facade. Critically acclaimed across Europe, Karin Fossum's Inspector Sejer novels are masterfully constructed, psychologically convincing, and compulsively readable, and are now available in the United States for the first time.
