JUDAS KISS – JUDASKYSSET

By Anna Grue

53-YEAR-OLD BOARDING SCHOOL teacher Ursula Olesen has actually come to terms with the idea of being single for the rest of her life when the young, handsome Jakob Heurlin shows up and sweeps her off her feet. Ursula forgets all caution and enjoys the most passionate love affair of her life – until one day she discovers that both Jakob and her fortune are gone. Ursula turns to Dan Sommerdahl, who immediately embarks on a long and surprising investigation that turns out to be connected to the brutal murder of a young student.

JUDAS KISS is the second independent volume in the series about Dan Sommerdahl.

ANNA GRUE’S CRITICALLY acclaimed crime series has sold almost a million copies and is the inspiration behind the TV 2 series Sommerdahl. The books follow the bald advertising director and amateur detective Dan Sommerdahl, who cannot stay away from the mysteries in the cozy provincial town of Christianssund, even though police officer Flemming Torp does everything he can to keep him away.
