– Publishers Weekly, starred review. 

Åre is one of most famous tourist resorts in Sweden, but Viveca Sten uses the tourist imagery as an entry point to a more serious description. Her Åre becomes an entire community, with winners and losers.
– Lotta Olsson, DN

I have never been to Åre [..] Now I am dying to go. I really like Hidden in Snow and am looking forward to the next book in the series.
– Smålandsposten

Her strong characterizations bring the wide cast of individuals to life, and she creates a likable character in Hanna, who is plagued by self-doubt.
– AudioFile Magazine

Just like in the Sandhamn Series Sten proves her skill at balancing a suspense plot with a relationship novel. The hunt for a murderer is thrilling, but just as important is following the main characters’ everyday lives.
– Göteborgsposten

Viveca Sten’s new crime series  delivers wintery suspense that will kick starts your adrenaline.
– Amelia Magazine

Great flow, lovely descriptions of the mountain scenery and I want to keep reading [..]
– Aftonbladet Söndag

Sten humanizes the murder victim and spends time on what loss can do to a family that is left. She uses nature and the weather, both beautiful and seriously deadly. It creates a longing for winter and snow and the Swedish mountains.
– Kristianstadbladet

Snow falls profusely and Viveca Sten describes the scenery – everything from Åre, Duved and Järpen to the isolated Ullå Valley – with a lot of love that also encompasses the large and well thought through character gallery and plot that takes unexpected and interesting turns.
– Norra Skåne

Like the star Viveca Sten is she quickly throws readers into the drama in the first pages of the prologue […].
The storytelling technique is at an elite level moving elegantly between the different narrators: mostly Hanna and Daniel’s but other as well. The construction of the characters is of an equally high standard; we get to know many interesting characters. This is a first class suspense read […]
– Kapprakt

We are met with short chapters that ensure a fast pace from start. The scenery depictions are amazing [..] The story is suspenseful, and I don’t find it all predictable [..] I am already looking forward to the next part.

This is the first part in the Åre Murders-series. And what a fantastic book! So well written about the characters, the fantastic surroundings in the mountains and it’s thrilling too! A true nailbiter, page turner and I didnt want the book to end. If you haven’t read it yet do it now!
