The Stonecutter

`The Stonecutter, by Camilla Lackberg ... continues her excellent series... The main narrative is cleverly interspersed with flashbacks from the past, the relevance of which becomes apparent as the novel progresses. Lackberg is particularly good at portraying the claustrophobia of a small community in which everyone knows everyone else and the police may well be friends with killers' Marcel Berlins, The Times

`Camilla Lackberg is probably the hottest female writer in Sweden at the moment... Lackberg's job is to make the reader pleasurably uncomfortable - one of her ironclad skills' Barry Forshaw, Independent

`The interplay between the police detectives and the lives of the characters in the small town... are absorbing and realistic' www.eurocrime.co.uk

Praise for `The Ice Princess':

`Another top-class Scandinavian crime writer reaches the British market' The Times

`A welcome new voice in crime fiction' Woman & Home

`Has a brooding quality redolent of its barren Swedish landscapes... intriguing and not a little disturbing' Irish Times

`Chilly, deceptive and lucid, just like the icy environment it describes' Literary Review

`Heart-stopping and heart-warming, `The Ice Princess' is a masterclass in Scandinavian crime writing' Val McDermid

Camilla Lackberg is a more than welcome addition to the growing ranks of Scandinavian crime writers translated into English. With its sharp emotional nuances and psychological insight, `The Ice Princess' builds in suspense as the author turns her clear eye on the buried secrets and contemporary relationships of a small, isolated community. I predict that Fjallbacka and its crimes and people will soon be as poplular here as they are in her native Sweden Peter Robinson

Camilla Lackberg is a worldwide bestseller renowned for her brilliant contemporary psychological thrillers. Her novels have sold over 20 million copies in 55 countries with translations into 37 languages.
