MIRAGE
By Camilla Läckberg & Henrik Fexeus
MIRAGE IS THE last instalment in Läckberg and Fexeus’ pulse-pounding trilogy about the odd investigative duo Vincent and Mina.
IT’S DECEMBER IN Stockholm and Sweden’s Minister of Justice is under threat. At the same time, a pile of human bones is found down in the Stockholm underground and the skeleton appears to be from a successful financier. Police detective Mina Dabiri’s unit is struggling after the traumatic event last summer that ended with the death of their colleague, and calls the mentalist Vincent Walder to help with the case. For Vincent it feels like the world is closing in on him. When another pile of bones is found underground the unit is put to a test once again – what is going on in the tunnels deep below Stockholm? And who is after the minister?
LÄCKBERG AND FEXEUS’ powerful Vincent and Mina series reaches its explosive conclusion.

REVIEWS
A novel you can’t put down…
– La Semaine, France
As usual, the crime novel is terribly well-crafted. Within a horrific storyline, it intertwines the ambiguous relationship between the two protagonists with the political intrigue and ensuing legal proceedings.
– Charente Libre, France
[…] this third and final volume of Mina and Vincent’s adventures fully lives up to its predecessors. Exploring the terrain of phobias and compulsions, the narrative once again mobilizes its two unconventional protagonists to captivating effect.
– Les Jeux de Maxi, France
After Trapped and Cult, this electrifying final installment of the Mina and Vincent duo draws us into an explosive finale and a conclusion as unforgettable as it is relentless.
– Ici Paris, France
A series that has managed to renew the DNA of the psychological thriller. Mirage fits perfectly into current events, exploring themes such as political radicalization, ideological manipulation, and the weight of personal traumas. The machination at the heart of the novel, inspired by fascist thought, transforms the corridors of the metro into a symbolic battlefield of an underground confrontation.
– Le Tarn Libre, France
For the enjoyment of readers of the first two volumes, this third adventure of the policewoman and the mentalist plays with the increasingly ambiguous nature of their relationship. [O]ne equally enjoys the depth given to the intimate moments as to the procedural scenes. A political intrigue interwoven with threads of horror, razor-sharp suspense: a well-crafted crime novel.
