Join her on a manhunt that takes her to the darkest corners of the human heart in this chilling first novel from Scandinavian crime writer Mons Kallentoft.</b><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>" Kallentoft is gifted ... He has a knack for characterisation and describing the slow burn of police work."-- "The Age (Australia)"<br><br>"[Kallentoft] is rightly praised for his skill at plotting, as well as his ability to create strongly-realised female protagonists ... The author's sequence featuring his wonderfully rounded female protagonist Malin Fors is rapidly acquiring a devoted following."-- "Good Book Guide"<br><br>"A cleverly crafted ... dark multilayered murder mystery."-- "Courier Mail (Australia)"<br><br>"A gripping opening gambit ... Investigating inspector Malin Fors is a feisty single mother, whose flaws are intriguing and endearing ... The chillingly suspense-filled story works up to a truly stunning finale."-- "Easy Living"<br><br>"An all-round chilling read, and an interesting beginning to what will be a fascinating five-part series of crime fiction page turners featuring the policewoman."-- "Sunshine Coast Daily (Australia)"<br><br>"Delivers in spades."-- "Hobart Mercury (Australia)"<br><br>"Don't bother with Stieg Larsson, Kallentoft is better."--Magnus Utvik, Sweden's leading critic<br><br>"He has a completely unique style, an exquisite narrative that you drink in with pleasure ... I'm convinced: a crime novel doesn't get much more beautiful than this." -- "Kristianstadsbladet"<br><br>"Malin Fors is an intriguing and complex heroine ... MIDWINTER BLOOD shows the hidden life under the picturesque surface ... Kallentoft is an outstanding writer."-- "Nordic Book Blog"<br><br>"Most successful as an in-depth exploration of small-town life in a country which is theoretically democratic and egalitarian, but only on the surface."-- "Canberra Times"<br><br>"My current favourite among the Scandinavian crime writers is another Swede, Mons Kallentoft. So far, three of his Malin Fors books have been translated into English: <i>Midwinter Blood</i>, <i>Summertime Death</i>, and <i>Autumn Killing</i>. I loved them all, particularly for the way Kallentoft gives a voice to his victims."--Alex Gray, author of Sleep Like the Dead<br><br>"One of the best-realised female heroines I've read by a male writer." -- "The Guardian"<br><br>"Sharp writing and original insights add spice."-- "Literary Review"<br><br>"The highest suspense."--Camilla Lackberg, international bestselling author of The Ice Child<br><br>"The prose is spare and the dead man whispers to the detective which she seems to hear and transform into an unerring instinct for the truth."-- "South Coast Register"<br><br>"This is a dark novel, full of awful people and desperate loneliness. Kallentoft is ruthless in his descriptions, but there is a great story here with solid police work leading Fors to the tale of the dead man in the tree. A must for the fans of Swedish crime novels."-- "The Globe and Mail"<br><br>"Meditative. Dark. Really, really cold ... This is a worthy successor to Larsson's Millennium trilogy ... This first installment in Kallentoft's crime series is a splendid representative of the Swedish crime novel, in all its elegance and eeriness." -- "Booklist (starred review)"<br>
