ReviewsA "NEW YORK TIMES" NOTABLE CRIME BOOK OF THE YEAR
"A high-impact Swedish thriller." --"The New York Times
""Superb . . . Roslund and Hellstrom play out the tale in taut, short scenes, meting our revelations and shocks in sure, knowing fashion, ending with the shock that all but undoes the rest . . . "Box 21" is profound." --"The Philadelphia Inquirer
""This dark, explicit novel is another impressive crime thriller from Scandinavia. . . . A good read." --"Arizona Republic " "Gripping . . . the story takes a number of surprising twists and turns." --"The Washington Post Book World"
"This excellent crime thriller is bound to please fans of Stieg Larsson's "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" and Henning Mankell's Kurt Wallander series." --"Library Journal ""A remarkable tale of loss, addiction and revenge. . . . This taut and nuanced thriller should appeal to fans of Mo Hayder, Denise Mina and, of course, Henning Mankell." --"Publishers Weekly "(Starred Review) "What is it with Scandinavians and great crime writing? Something to do with the long nights, I guess. "Box 21", with its sharply drawn cast of jaded cops, junkies, thugs, and victims, is a gripping tale of modern-day slavery, damage, and revenge, shocking and compelling in equal measure." --Simon Lewis, author of "Bad Traffic"
