What this book is about
When a wealthy businessman plunges from the window of his luxury apartment in Göteborg, the initial verdict is suicide. But Detective Inspector Irene Huss, a martial arts champion and mother of twins, suspects that the death was no accident. The first Irene Huss novel introduces Tursten's warm, capable, and determined detective — a refreshing contrast to the brooding male detectives of Scandinavian crime fiction.
