Book description
Con 17 millones de lectores en 40 idiomas, Lars Kepler ("el suspense hecho virtud", según The New York Times) vuelve con su novela más negra y salvaje, y con una serie de TV en marcha. Jenny Lind tiene dieciséis años cuando la secuestran al volver del instituto a casa. Durante su encierro junto a otras chicas, en una granja de visones abandonada, hace todo lo posible por sobrevivir en un lugar rodeado de trampas para lobos y bajo la estricta vigilancia de "la abuela", que no duda en usar la sierra para evitar que se alejen. El mundo acaba dando por muerta a Jenny... hasta que cinco años después, una joven aparece ahorcada en un parque infantil de Estocolmo. Las cámaras de seguridad muestran un único testigo, un hombre que mira atentamente la escena. Sin embargo, su cerebro, destrozado por una serie de traumas, ha decidido dejar de registrar el horror y no puede recordar nada. El detective Joona Linna, que vuelve a hacer gala de métodos poco ortodoxos, contacta con el doctor Erik Maria Bark, el hipnotista que años antes ya le había dado la clave para una investigación. En su intento de comprender la compleja y depravada psicología del asesino, Linna emprende una casi imposible carrera contrarreloj. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION 1 INTERNATIONAL BEST SELLER - Detective Joona Linna is on the trail of a kidnapper who targets teenage girls and makes their worst nightmares a reality. "Dark, disturbing, and chillingly relentless. Picture Hannibal Lecter sitting down to channel Stieg Larsson and then dial it way, way up!" --Brad Thor, #1 New York Times best-selling author of Black Ice Sixteen-year-old Jenny Lind is kidnapped in broad daylight on her way home from school and thrown into the back of a truck. She's taken to a dilapidated house, where she and other girls face horrors far beyond their worst nightmares. Though they're desperate to escape, their captor foils everyone of their attempts. Five years later, Jenny's body is found hanging in a playground, strung up with a winch on a rainy night. As the police are scrambling to find a lead in the scant evidence, Detective Joona Linna recognizes an eerie connection between Jenny's murder and a death declared a suicide years before. And when another teenage girl goes missing, it becomes clear to Joona that they're dealing with a serial killer--and his murderous rampage may have just begun.
