We Know You Remember by Tove Alsterdal, HC $35.99

Tove Alsterdal's We Know You Remember has to be my pick of the year. While she is a well-known author in Scandinavian countries, We Know You Remember is Alsterdal's debut to the North American market. Alsterdal's writing is dark and atmospheric, twisty without being murky, and hard to put down. We Know You Remember follows the investigation of a suspicious death in a small town, where the father of the man convicted of sexual assault and murder has been found dead. In her pursuit of the man's killer, detective Eira Sjödin searches for the truth in the decades-old crime which still haunts the town. Great for fans of Ragnar Jonasson, Camilla Lackberg, or Ake Edwardson looking for a fresh new series.
