Reviews:
The August Strindberg series stands on solid foundations: a likeable and reliable protagonist, a perfectly measured dose of relationship drama, and a generous portion of cosy atmosphere in a thrilling story.

In a world that often feels bleak today, returning to August Strindberg and Hovenäset is like a warm embrace. While the murders and suspense add another dimension, the real driving force is the setting and the characters. Kristina Ohlsson herself says she writes fairy tales for adults – and that is exactly how you feel when reading this series.
