Following the incredible success of Sara Blaedel's #1 international bestsellers The Forgotten Girls and The Killing Forest, Louise Rick--head of the police department's elite Special Search Agency charged with missing persons cases--returns in Sara's latest twist-filled suspense novel . . .
A housewife is the target of a shocking, methodical killing. Shot with a hunting rifle through her kitchen window, the woman is dead before she hits the ground.
Though murdered in England, it turns out that the woman, Sofie Parker, is actually a Danish citizen who's been on the Missing Persons list for almost two decades--so Louise Rick is called on to the case. Then, in an unexpected twist, the police discover that Sofie had been reported missing eighteen years ago by none other than Eik, Louise Rick's police colleague and lover.
Impulsive as ever, Eik rushes to England, and ends up in jail on suspicion of Sofie's murder. Completely blindsided by Eik's connection to the case, Louise is thoroughly unsettled and sick with worry, yet she must set aside her own emotional turmoil if she hopes to find the killer in what will become her most controversial case yet...
Crime-writer superstar Sara Blaedel's great skill is in weaving a heartbreaking social history into an edge-of-your-chair thriller while at the same time creating a detective who's as emotionally rich and real as a close friend. -- Oprah.com
One of the best I've come across. -- Michael Connelly
Sara Blaedel is a force to be reckoned with. She's a remarkable crime writer who time and again delivers a solid, engaging story that any reader in the world can enjoy. -- Karin Slaughter
Leads to...that gray territory where compassion can become a crime and kindness can lead to coldblooded murder. -- New York Times Book Review

PRAISE FOR THE LOUISE RICK SERIES:

Another suspenseful, skillfully wrought entry.--Booklist on The Killing Forest

Blaedel delivers another thrilling novel...Twists and turns will have readers on the edge of their seats waiting to see what happens next.--RT Book Reviews on The Killing Forest

Blaedel solidifies once more why her novels are as much finely drawn character studies as tightly plotted procedurals, always landing with a punch to the gut and the heart.--Library Journal (STARRED REVIEW)

Blaedel, Denmark's most popular author, is known for her dark mysteries, and she examines the controversial social issue at the heart of this novel, but ends on a surprisingly light note. Another winner from Blaedel.--Booklist

Chilling...[a] swiftly moving plot and engaging core characters.--Publishers Weekly on The Forgotten Girls

Crackling with suspense, atmosphere, and drama, THE FORGOTTEN GIRLS is simply stellar crime fiction. I loved spending time with the tough, smart, and all-too-human heroine Louise Rick--and I can't wait to see her again.--Lisa Unger

Crime-writer superstar Sara Blaedel's great skill is in weaving a heartbreaking social history into an edge-of-your-chair thriller while at the same time creating a detective who's as emotionally rich and real as a close friend.--Oprah.com

Deliciously dark...[A] great tale!--Suspense Magazine

Engrossing...Blaedel nicely balances the twisted relationships of the cult members with the true friendships of Louise, Camilla, and their circle.--Publishers Weekly on The Killing Forest

Engrossing.--Toronto Star

the last in the series?

Interesting subject of assisted dying.

narrative itself itself a bit woman magazine-ish especially the ending

if this is the last in the series just as well, I think it has run it's course

SPOILER did I miss something but how did the "baddie" get the rifle through security at airport both there and back

Louise Rick is busy with her work in the Search Department in Copenhagen, Denmark. She has recently moved in with her lover, Eik Nordstrøm. One routine day, Eik goes missing. Sofie and the people in her department can't find him anywhere. Finally, he is located in jail in England. Sofie Parker, a former Danish citizen and Eik's long-ago missing girlfriend, is found murdered, shot at her kitchen window with a rifle. Irritated that Eik would drop everything for a woman who has been missing nearly two decades, Louise is sent to England to fetch him.

The English police seem to think Eik is responsible for the murder, but Louise and her colleagues feel otherwise. She soon discovers a web of Swiss money transactions and a home hospice service that seems to be connected. As Louise delves deeper into the murder, with the help of her journalist friend Camilla, they begin to track the killer. But can they find the killer before it is too late?

This is the first book I've read in this series though there are several before it. However, it stood alone well as a novel on its own. If you like fast-paced Scandavian crime stories, you will enjoy this book.

Catte

I enjoyed most of the characters

Reviewed in the United States on 3 May 2017

Verified Purchase

This was an absorbing mystery with quite a few twists and turns. It does have a definite "message" about end of life and assisted suicide (it's clearly "for") and that may bother some folks, so if you are one of them I'd advise against it. I enjoyed most of the characters, but have a hard time buying that Eik can present himself to the world (and for a long time to Louise) as a pretty "together" sort of guy and still have quite a few of these mental breaks where he goes off half-cocked.I got annoyed with him, and eventually with everybody who put up with him; but it wasn't enough to prevent my wanting to finish the tale and see how it all came together.
