    <body><![CDATA[This is one of those books that doesn’t neatly fit into the crime fiction genre (which undoubtedly annoys the publishers but doesn’t bother me in the slightest).

    <![CDATA[It's midsummer in Sweden when the light lingers through dawn and a long, isolating winter finally comes to an end. In this magical time, a brutal killer has chosen to strike. A female priest&#8212;who made enemies and acolytes in equal number&#8212;has been found hanging in her church. And a big-city lawyer quite acquainted with death enters the scene as police and parishioners try to pick up the pieces....not long ago, attorney Rebecka Martinsson had to kill three men in order to stop an eerily similar murder spree one that also involved a priest. Now she is back in Kiruna, the region of her birth, while a determined policewoman gnaws on the case and people who loved or loathed the victim mourn or revel in her demise. The further Rebecka is drawn into the mystery&#8212;a mystery that will soon take another victim&#8212;the more the dead woman&#8217;s world clutches her: a world of hurt and healing, sin and sexuality, and, above all, of sacrifice.In prose that is both lyrical and visceral, Åsa Larsson has crafted a novel of pure entertainment, a taut, atmospheric mystery that will hold you in thrall until the last, unforgettable page is turned]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Another in a mystery series by Swedish author Asa Larsson.  This title won Sweden's best crime novel award.  The detective duo of Anna Maria Mella and Sven-Erik are likeable and remind me of the detectives in the movie Fargo.  The two are always helped out by bad luck lawyer Rebecka Martinsson.

It was painful to watch Rebecka Martinsson character completely fall apart.  Her raveling gives new meaning to a woman undone.<br/><br/>]]></body>

    <![CDATA[It's midsummer in Sweden when the light lingers through dawn and a long, isolating winter finally comes to an end. In this magical time, a brutal killer has chosen to strike. A female priest&#8212;who made enemies and acolytes in equal number&#8212;has been found hanging in her church. And a big-city lawyer quite acquainted with death enters the scene as police and parishioners try to pick up the pieces....not long ago, attorney Rebecka Martinsson had to kill three men in order to stop an eerily similar murder spree one that also involved a priest. Now she is back in Kiruna, the region of her birth, while a determined policewoman gnaws on the case and people who loved or loathed the victim mourn or revel in her demise. The further Rebecka is drawn into the mystery&#8212;a mystery that will soon take another victim&#8212;the more the dead woman&#8217;s world clutches her: a world of hurt and healing, sin and sexuality, and, above all, of sacrifice.In prose that is both lyrical and visceral, Åsa Larsson has crafted a novel of pure entertainment, a taut, atmospheric mystery that will hold you in thrall until the last, unforgettable page is turned]]>

    <![CDATA[It's midsummer in Sweden when the light lingers through dawn and a long, isolating winter finally comes to an end. In this magical time, a brutal killer has chosen to strike. A female priest&#8212;who made enemies and acolytes in equal number&#8212;has been found hanging in her church. And a big-city lawyer quite acquainted with death enters the scene as police and parishioners try to pick up the pieces....not long ago, attorney Rebecka Martinsson had to kill three men in order to stop an eerily similar murder spree one that also involved a priest. Now she is back in Kiruna, the region of her birth, while a determined policewoman gnaws on the case and people who loved or loathed the victim mourn or revel in her demise. The further Rebecka is drawn into the mystery&#8212;a mystery that will soon take another victim&#8212;the more the dead woman&#8217;s world clutches her: a world of hurt and healing, sin and sexuality, and, above all, of sacrifice.In prose that is both lyrical and visceral, Åsa Larsson has crafted a novel of pure entertainment, a taut, atmospheric mystery that will hold you in thrall until the last, unforgettable page is turned]]>

    <body><![CDATA[I liked this book because it provided different perspectives. The people in the book were very interesting and murder itself involved a complex set of emotions and lies that come back to the small town where the story takes place. I especially emjoyed the scenes that had to do with the wolf. ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Boek 3 uit mijn reeks thrillers van DS... Verschenen in het Nederlands als 'Midzomernacht'. Blijkbaar een vervolg op 'Zonnestorm', waardoor sommige verwijzingen voor mij niet echt duidelijk zijn; Hallo, lieve mensen van De Standaard, kunnen jullie dat misschien nog opsturen (grijns,grijns...)]]></body>
