Buried sins
Brutal revenge…
Two years ago, Alexander Blix was the lead investigator in a missing person's case where a young mother, Elisabeth Eie, was kidnapped. The case was never solved.
Blix's career in law enforcement is now over, but her kidnapper is back, leaving evidence of Elisabeth's murder in Blix's mailbox, as well as hints that there are other victims.
At the same time, Emma Ramm has been contacted by a teenage girl, whose stepfather has been arrested on suspicion of killing a childhood friend. But there is no body. Nor are there any other suspects…
Blix and Ramm can rely only on each other, and when Blix's fingerprints are found on a child's drawing at a crime scene, the present comes uncomfortably close to the past.
A past where a victim has found their own, shocking form of therapy.
And someone is watching…
Shocking, relentless and unbearably tense, Victim marks the return of the international bestselling, blockbuster Blix & Ramm series from two of Norway's finest crime writers.

    There is something about the number 3.    
     
    The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
     
    Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
     
    Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.

    Welcome to the house where nothing is real—even murder. 
    When Lily Sinclair disappears into the glittering world of Horizon House, her mother, Karen, knows something’s wrong. The influencers say she’s thriving. The videos say she’s free. But the silence says otherwise. 
    After months of being ignored, gaslit, and shut out, Karen does what any desperate mother would do: she goes to war. Against the system. Against Horizon House. Against the man at the center of it all—charismatic founder Hugo Ames. 
    As her campaign goes viral and the online world rallies behind her, secrets start to crack. And when tragedy strikes, one thing becomes horrifyingly clear: Lily wasn’t the only one being watched. Or the only one in danger. 
    Told through shifting perspectives—Karen, her estranged ex-husband Jack, and Lily herself—How to Lose a Daughter is a razor-sharp psychological thriller about identity, influence, and the dark side of transformation. 
    Perfect for fans of The Family Upstairs, Verity, and The Push.

A few hours later, Sweden's Prime Minister was shot dead on Sveavägen in Stockholm.

Against his will, he will be transported forward in time to the year 2017.
