During an unusually hot July, detective Patrik Hedstrom and Erica Falck are enjoying a rare week at home together, nervous and excited about the imminent birth of their first baby. Across town, however, a six-year-old boy makes a gruesome discovery that will ravage their little tourist community and catapult Patrik into the center of a terrifying murder case.
“[A] gripping, unsettling thriller…The Preacher can go up against the [Stieg] Larsson books head-on when it comes to narrative drive and skillful exploration of family secrets.”
—Washington Post
“Läckberg weaves a solid thriller that will gratify fans of Liza Marklund, Stieg Larsson, and the team of Anders Roslund and Borge Hellstrom. This fast-paced tale ensures Läckberg’s place on the A-list of Scandinavian crime writers.”
—Booklist
“A welcome addition to the swelling ranks of Scandinavian crime writers! A good, solid read.”
—Irish Independent
