Renowned crime writer Arne Dahlgren has just finished his fifteenth manuscript at his home in Glommen. Then someone close to him is found dead.
What first appears to be a tragic accident is soon ruled a murder—and suspicion falls on the author himself. For years, Dahlgren has relied on a secret circle of eight test readers, none of whom knew the others existed. Now, as fear spreads and a second killing follows, hidden connections begin to surface.
Prosecutor Ylva Isaksson, one of the eight, sees a disturbing pattern. Is she next?
Detective Inspector Kajsa Rudolfsson must uncover the truth before the killer strikes again.
The Reading Circle is the third installment in the Falkenberg Murders series, a chilling story of secrets and deadly betrayal.
