APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The search for a merciless killer puts a doctor’s family in the line of fire in this intense psychological thriller that launches a much-loved series. After a career-threatening incident, psychologist Erik Maria Bark vowed never to hypnotize another patient. But when a family is brutally murdered, Detective Inspector Joona Linna convinces him that hypnotizing the only survivor might be the last chance to uncover the truth. However, when Erik’s own son is kidnapped, he must determine who has taken him: a deranged figure from his past or the vicious serial killer his hypnotism revealed. From the opening scene, we were hooked. Author Lars Kepler’s novel is a deep dive into the minds of killers and those who hunt them. His pacing, perfectly executed by narrator Saul Reichlin, is blistering, taking us on a thrill ride that doesn’t let up until the final bloody confrontation. With its unforgettable characters and intense twists, this international smash hit will be in your mind for a long time.
