Praise for The Father: Made in Sweden, Part I "Riveting . . .
Recommended for all fans of noir and Nordic crime
fiction."--Booklist
Praise for The Sons: Made in Sweden Part II "Superb finale of the
Dostoyevskian saga that began with 2016's The Father . . . Seldom
in fiction have a father's sins been so brutally visited on sons as
in this shattering tribute to the terrifying complexity of familial
life and love."
--Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
"A powerful real-life story."
--The Guardian
"An excellent thriller...Well-written and psychologically sound in
its presentation of damaged children growing into damaged men, The
Sons is gritty, frequently graphic, and a compelling study of the
roots of crime. Highly recommended."
--D.R. Meredith, New York Journal of Books
"An exciting yet tear-jerking thriller . . . As the reader watches
these young lads turn into the 'Most Wanted' the action races,
along with the crushing emotions of lives turned bad by a hideous
parent."--Suspense Magazine
"Based on an actual series of events, this absorbing, often
heartrending tale reads like superb narrative nonfiction, with
disturbing images of domestic violence and ice-cold
criminality."
--Booklist
