DEN ANDRA SYSTERN – THE OTHER SISTER
By Mohlin & Nyström
ALICIA BJELKE IS a young woman with a face so deformed that people recoil when they see her. She is the coding genius behind a groundbreaking dating company that she founded together with her sister Stella, but only the strikingly beautiful sister gets to stand in the spotlight. Until the day Stella is found dead. Alicia’s life is upended as she realises that she is the killer’s next victim.
FORMER FBI AGENT John Adderley, who is still living in Karlstad under a secret identity, is tasked with the investigation. John is haunted by shadows from his previous life and sees no other way to survive but to leave Sweden. But the playing field has changed. Instead of continuing to run John is forced to once and for all deal with his demons – and this new murder investigation offers him an unexpected opportunity.
IN A SUCCESSFUL mix of high octane suspense and psychological depth, we are treated to a plot so thrilling it will take your breath away. It’s finally time to get reacquainted with our new hero John Adderley.
THE OTHER SISTER is the heart-pounding sequel to The Bucket List which won Crime Debut of the Year in 2020.

REVIEWS
This second novel by the Swedish friends and co-writers Mohlin and Nyström more than lives up to their 2021 debut 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
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
Incredibly suspenseful.

The Other Sister is a well written suspense novel that is hard to let go of. The storytelling tone is nice and the language is well chosen so reading it is smooth. The Other Sister is a page-turner and a worthy second book in a series.
@lottengl
The plot is perfectly written and throughout the book there is an intense suspense, just as a crime is supposed to be. The red thread throughout the book is good, the moments you get to read about the pastime have been fantastically woven together with the present.
@annebannesbokhylla
Wow, what a homerun of a sequel. Part one in the series is really good and this one is just as good. That is something you usually worry about.
