The Godfather for the 21st century. The Andalucian Friend is a major international thriller about an intricate crime web that engulfs all who are caught up in it. When Sophie Brinkmann meets Hector Guzman, she knows everything that she needs to- he's handsome, he's charming and he makes her happy. But what she doesn't know is that Hector has some nasty friends, some even nastier enemies, and an unscrupulous police operation relentlessly following his every move. With her house under surveillance by the law and her life under threat from drug traffickers, gangsters and hitmen, Sophie must decide who she can trust - and whose side she really wants to be on.

The Scandi movement towards literary world domination gathers apace with the first in a trilogy from Swedish scriptwriter Alexander Sderbergit already feels tailor made for TV -- Claire Allfree * Metro *
One of the many wonderful things about Alexander Sderberg's novel, The Andalucian Friend, is how it upsets our expectations. His cops act like gangsters, while his gangsters (some of them) attain a startling sort of nobility. Sderberg has created an entertaining, engaging, and wonderfully bloody-minded world. Hes a great storyteller. Its that simple -- Scott Smith, author of The Ruins
An unpredictable and breathlessly suspenseful, taut and well-written thriller... A timeless saga about the struggle between good and evil... Utterly brilliant * Vsterbottens-Kuriren (Sweden) *
