    Hattie's down on her luck. She's collected enough enemies in high places that the only work she can find is a one-night-only vanity project being mounted by an extremely unlikely impresario, and beyond that things are looking bleak. However her career concerns must be put aside when an old friend appears, in serious trouble and asking for a big favour. Hattie tries to help, but things swiftly go awry and she finds herself thrown into a cat-and-mouse game with some very shady types who pursue her across London all the way to (where else?) backstage in the theatre on opening night.

    A secret lover. A haunted rectory. A trap that's been waiting since the Stone Age.
    
    Detective Inspector Jesper Ek is a man possessed. He has fallen head over heels for Julia, a woman as captivating as she is guarded. But Julia is a mystery with a past that won't stay buried. When her dark history finally catches up with her, a lethal trap snaps shut. Torn between fierce loyalty and a mounting pile of incriminating facts, the police department begins to fracture.
    
    While Ek's life spirals, Detective Inspector Maria Wern is called to the ancient rectory in Lärbro to investigate a series of gruesome, ritualistic threats. The target is Alva, a young priest who refuses to take the danger seriously. But the evidence suggests a fanatic is recreating a 13th-century legend: the story of a priest-slayer who, according to local myth, still walks the Gotlandic earth.
    
    As Alva and Julia's cases collide in a web of ancient runes and occult worship, Maria uncovers a connection to a prehistoric cult-a bond forged in a past that neither woman could escape.
    
    In this eerie nineteenth installment of the Maria Wern series, international bestseller Anna Jansson masterfully weaves together modern forensic science and ancient rites. On an island where legends have teeth, Maria must find the truth before the past claims its next victim.
    
    'Anna Jansson has a very unique style and an extraordinary gift. She will gently lead you into a world where anything and everything is possible. And you can't stop following.' - Peter Stormare

    A crime committed in desperation is brought to light generations later, in this emotional saga of family love, loyalty, and lies . . . 
    When Honey McCarthy inherits a small box of trinkets from her beloved great-aunt Beryl, she expects keepsakes—not secrets. But hidden inside is something far more dangerous: a confession to a terrible crime committed on a freezing December night in 1940, as German bombs fell over Manchester. 
    Beryl carried that secret for decades. Now it belongs to Honey. 
    As the truth begins to take shape, Honey faces an impossible choice. Expose what really happened and risk tearing her family apart or lock the past away again, where it can do no more harm. 
    Then she meets Levi. Charming, enigmatic, and carrying secrets of his own, Levi offers to help unravel the mystery. Drawn to him in ways she can’t quite explain, Honey finds herself trusting him with more than just the truth. But the deeper they dig, the darker the past becomes.
