Book Review of The Ice Princess (Patrik Hedstrom, Bk 1)

The Ice Princess (Patrik Hedstrom, Bk 1)
artsncrafts avatar reviewed on + 52 more book reviews


This Scandinavian writer will remind you a bit of Steig Larsson (of "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" series) and is translated into English by Steven Murray who also translated Larsson's works, but this story a bit lighter in texture. Ugly secrets and murder in small-town Sweden, a frustrated female author, and an under-utilized police detective all figure strongly into the plot which is Book 1 of a series of 7 about said detective, Patrik Hedstrom. Enjoyable and well-written mystery.
