#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.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"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

“Chilling, nerve-shredding, clever, and impossibly dark. Lars Kepler has that rare ability to take you to the very edge, and hold you there until the final page.”
—Chris Whitaker, New York Times best-selling author of We Begin at the End

“As dark and chilling as a Swedish winter, Lars Kepler’s The Mirror Man is a riveting read. Joona Linna finds himself up against his most dangerous adversary yet—a kidnapper of girls whose cruelty throws back a reflection of the deepest kind of human evil. Those who love their Scandinavian crime fiction intense, twisty, and psychologically terrifying will be unable to put this one down.”
—Gregg Hurwitz, New York Times #1 internationally best-selling author of the Orphan X series

"Stellar.... The ability of Kepler (the pen name of Alexander and Alexandra Ahndoril) to ratchet up the tension en route to a stunning reveal and an eminently fair solution is remarkable. This merits comparisons with the best of Thomas Harris." —Publishers Weekly (starred)

"A bar-raising entry in a series that unfailingly blends streamlined plotting, smart psychological suspense, and explosive conclusions with gritty portrayals of human evil." —Booklist

WOW!!! Just WOW!!!

This is one of the most intense books I have ever listened to, and I listen to a lot of books. Totally worth a credit; it will not disappoint.

quite gruesome.

most descriptive part are describing violence. it seems this book could a been condensed some maybe 10 hours would be better because I just get like it was drawn out.

Double wow!!

This book was intense and fascinating. The conclusion was totally unexpected. And given all the truths about women being held captive in unhealthy relationships, the book brought many concerns to the surface. Trauma creates changed individuals.

B+

Definitely not the best book of the series but it was sufficiently entertaining and held my attention the whole way through. Id give it a B+ rating.

One of the best thrillers

Great narrative keeps you hooked from start to end

Good even though it was gory!

I guessed wrong. I love that. Lots of strings that come together nicely at the end. Loved it.

As always a thrilling, nail biting listen!

I so enjoy listening to the Joona Lina mysteries. The narrator truly makes the characters come alive.

Really good book

I normally always figure out who the villain is but in this story I was surprised. It really well done.

Brilliant!

An intelligently written story. I loved it! Perfect as usual. Lars Kepler did it again.
