Unseen

Más información sobre el libro

The island of Gotland is in the middle of a busy tourist season, and getting ready for Midsummer holidays, when a young woman and her dog are found brutally murdered. The dog has been beheaded and is missing a paw; the woman has been stabbed repeatedly, and is naked, with a piece of cloth stuffed in her mouth. What looks like a crime committed by the victim's jealous husband keeps the local police force on their toes. Then a second victim is found. It seems a serial killer is terrorizing tourists and locals alike, and Inspector Anders Knutas has to face additional pressure from the media and local politicians who are worried about bad PR for the island. In his quest for the murderer, he is aided by Johan Berg, an intrepid young journalist from Stockholm who has been sent to cover the incidents and who gets involved with Emma, one of the first victim's close friends. Three women die before Knutas and Berg, each approaching the case in their own way, finally close in on the killer, who has always, until now, been the one unseen by everybody.
