Publisher's summary

No. 1 international bestseller and Swedish crime sensation Camilla Lackberg’s new psychological thriller – irresistible for fans of Stieg Larsson and Jo Nesbo.

Detective Patrik Hedstrom is no stranger to tragedy. A murder case concerning Fjallbacka’s dead financial director, Mats Sverin, is a grim but useful distraction from his recent family misfortunes.

It seems Mats was a man who everybody liked yet nobody really knew – a man with something to hide…

His high school sweetheart, Nathalie, has just returned to the area with her five-year-old son – could she shed light on who Mats really was?

However, Nathalie has her own secret. If it’s discovered, she will lose her only child. As the investigation stalls, the police have many questions. But there is only one that matters.

Is there anything a mother would not do to protect her child?

disappointing

What would have made Patrick Hedstrom and Erica Falck (7) – The Lost Boy better?

I wonder if the translation to English lost much of the impact. I found the constant use of common similes and metaphors childish and infuriating.

The story itself was gripping - but I struggled to continue listening as the writing constantly annoyed me.

I also did not like the narration - the tone varied between condescending and pathetic - not enough variation for other compex characters again - most annoying

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

The relationship between the "now" and "then" - which had me trying to work out the connection.

Re reference to parts already told. Did the writer think I couldn't remember?

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Robin Bowerman?

Sean Barratt

What character would you cut from Patrick Hedstrom and Erica Falck (7) – The Lost Boy?

The Super - time he went!
