HEMLIGHETEN – THE SECRET
By Anna Bågstam
BUSINESSMAN PETTER LARSSON is found murdered in his office. It is his girlfriend Alex who finds him, and when the shock has worn off, she realises that there is a lot Petter has been keeping from her. Alex works at the law firm where Petter was a client, but it’s her taciturn colleague Lydia who seems to know most of Petter’s secrets. Who was he really, the man she thought she had come to know? Alex can’t get any answers from Lydia, and her digging eventually leads her to the court in Eksjö, where Lydia and Petter were once notaries.
ALEX IS DETERMINED to find out Petter and Lydia’s dark secret. Things start to heat up when she realises that something happened twenty years ago that changed everything.
GET READY FOR page-turning suspense in Anna Bågstam’s new crime series, where the spotlight is on the justice system and the consistent abuse of power that takes place in the name of the law. Here we get an insight into a ruthless world that is unfamiliar to most people.
