The Inspector and Silence by Hakan Nesser

The Inspector and Silence by Hakan Nesser

In this enthralling new addition to Hakan Nesser's acclaimed Inspector Van Veeteren series, the Swedish detective must crack a secretive and uncooperative religious sect in order to solve a string of brutal murders.

When one of the Pure Life's members is found raped and strangled in the forest near the group's camp, the Chief Inspector is called to investigate. The Pure Life has chosen to remain silent about the incident rather than defend itself, so Van Veeteren's only lead is the anonymous caller who reported the body. As the unidentified woman continues to assist the authorities, her knowledge suggests she's more than just a passing Good Samaritan, but her tips become doubly perplexing as a new string of increasingly horrifying crimes defy everything Van Veeteren and his team thought they knew about the case.

With Mind's Eye (published in Sweden as Det Grovmaskiga Natet), Hakan Nesser got the Swedish Crime Writers' Academy Award for New Authors in 1993; for Borkmann's Point in 1994 and Woman with Birthmark in 1996, he received the best novel award. For Carambole, he received the Glass Key Award from the Crime Writers of Scandanavia in 1999 for best crime fiction of the year. Nesser splits his time between Sweden and London.
