Mohlin and Nyström’s stellar sequel to 2021’s The Bucket List more than delivers on the first book’s promise . . . This nail-biter doesn’t let John off the hook for some hard choices he’s forced to make as the action builds to a jaw-dropping climax. Readers will be counting the days to see where these gifted writers take their lead next.” ―Publishers Weekly, *starred* review “This second novel by the Swedish friends and co-writers Mohlin and Nyström more than lives up to their 2021 debut in The Bucket List . . . The harsh crescendo of revelation adds both suspense and depth to a very dark tale of bad choices leading to crime and consequences . . . It all comes together in a grimly satisfying series of events, showing more clearly than ever that Mohlin and Nyström understand costs and penalties.” ―New York Journal of Books “In a successful mix of high-octane suspense and psychological depth, authors Peter Mohlin and Peter Nyström deliver a thrilling sequel in the John Adderley series . . .a unique twist on the usual Nordic police procedural . . . an unusual deviation in this genre, that’s well worth checking out for readers looking for something different and darker even than the standard Scandinoir.” ―Criminal Element
