Sail of Stone (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781451608502)

From bestselling Scandinavian crime writer ﾅke Edwardson--whose books are international sensations in Europe--comes this gripping novel of suspense and character involving two missing persons, two detectives, and a mystery dating to World War II.A brother and sister believe that their father has gone missing. They think he may have traveled in search of his father, who was presumed lost decades ago in World War II. Meanwhile, there are reports that a woman is being abused, but she can't be found and her family won't tell the police where she is. Two missing people and two very different families combine in this dynamic and suspenseful mystery by the Swedish master ﾅke Edwardson. Gothenburg's Chief Inspector Erik Winter travels to Scotland in search of the missing man, aided there by an old friend from Scotland Yard. Back in Gothenburg, Afro-Swedish detective Aneta Djanali discovers how badly someone doesn't want her to find the missing woman when she herself is threatened. Sail of Stone is a brilliantly perceptive character study, acutely observed and skillfully written with an unerring sense of pace.
