GRÄNSÖVERSKRIDAREN – HIDDEN BORDERS
By Viveca Sten
JUST AS THE autumn break begins, an unexpected snowstorm hits Åre.
TWO DRUG SMUGGLERS are found frozen to death in a car near the Norwegian border. At the same time, a teenager texting with strangers online is quickly drawn into brutal and ruthless gang violence.
ALL OF A sudden, lethal cocaine starts circulating in the village, and soon the first victim ends up in hospital. Police officers Hanna Ahlander and Daniel Lindskog must do everything in their power to stop the spread of the lethal drug. But Hanna is heavily pregnant and struggling at home, refusing to heed Daniel’s warnings not to push herself too far.
AS THE STORM rages on, Hanna and Daniel face the most challenging investigation of their careers – a battle that demands they risk everything to save innocent lives.

REVIEWS
Sten is skilled at creating a tense atmosphere in which nature plays a central role, reinforcing the feeling of isolation and danger. […] An exciting, fast-paced thriller that combines a criminal mystery, strong characters, and burning contemporary themes.

Suspense is mixed with interesting life stories for the characters we have grown to love. Very good. Highly recommended.

Another exciting and highly topical book by Viveca with a fast pace and lots of emotion. Just like her previous books, I was immediately hooked on the story, and the suspense simmers throughout the book.
