Reviews

Praise for The Ice Princess:

Heart-stopping and heart-warming, The Ice Princess is a masterclass in Scandinavian crime writing Val McDermid

Camilla Lckberg is a more than welcome addition to the growing ranks of Scandinavian crime writers translated into English. With its sharp emotional nuances and psychological insight, The Ice Princess builds in suspense as the author turns her clear eye on the buried secrets and contemporary relationships of a small, isolated community. I predict that Fjallbacka and its crimes and people will soon be as poplular here as they are in her native Sweden Peter Robinson

Another top-class Scandinavian crime writer reaches the British market The Times

A welcome new voice in crime fiction Woman & Home

Has a brooding quality redolent of its barren Swedish landscapes intriguing and not a little disturbing Irish Times

Chilly, deceptive and lucid, just like the icy environment it describes Literary Review

Praise for Camilla Lackberg:

Domesticity and brutality are Lackberg staples Tightly plotted Unflinching. Sunday Times

Pacy with flashing insight into the dark places of the psyche Sunday Times

A top-class Scandinavian crime writer The Times

The rock star of Nordic Noir Independent

Lackberg is an expert at mixing scenes of domestic cosiness with blood-curdling horror Guardian

Both chilling and thrilling Sun
