Description
'Death, death, death,' she whispered to herself a But it was already too late. The panic was growing inside her. On a cold and stormy Friday in May, a young girl disappears without a trace from outside Stockholm's Royal Tennis Hall. The missing girl is Lycke, and assigned to report on her story is TV4's hot-headed crime reporter Ellen Tamm. As the police begin their search, Ellen starts her own investigation, delving into Lycke's life- her family, the nanny, the kids who taunted her at school. As Ellen is drawn deeper into a tangle of secrets, lies, and betrayals - and frustrated by the odd behaviour of Lycke's family, as well as corrupt police, her upstart new boss, and the disturbing threats being made against her - she becomes more and more possessed by the task she has been given, tortured by the echoes of her own past, of the darkness that haunts her. Will she find Lycke before it is too late for either of them? Mikaela Bley's debut,Lycke, is the haunting first novel in the Ellen Tamm thriller series, and is an exciting new voice in Swedish crime writing. 'A powerful story, which invites you to look for the evil inside your own house. Mikaela Bley is the new queen of the Swedish thriller.' - Vanity Fair 'It's not often that I get as completely caught up by a crime novel, the way I've just been by Mikaela Bley'sLycke. Immensely thrilling, curious, uncomfortable, entertaining. (I) just discovered a new crime writer.' - Alex Schulman, co-author of bestselling Tid
