There is seemingly nothing to link the two victims, and the police move on, desperate for a lead. But someone out there has a deadly secret. And as events begin to play out - masterminded by a strange and bewitching figure - all of their worlds are about to come crashing down ...An ingenious thriller from an exciting new Danish talent.

Best of the Latest Releases: The Preacher explores love and guilt in Scandinavian small-town society * Radio Times (Nordic Noir) *
A deceptively clever thriller that bears thinking about . . . The Preacher holds its own among the Scandi-crime competing for our attention, and is, I think, ahead of the pack when it comes to the quality of the prose and the subtlety of the themes * Killing Time blog *
The writing team behind this book are gifted with characters and have constructed an intricate psychological premise for their debut novel * Crime Fiction Lover blog *
An excellent crime novel . . . The Preacher demonstrates the refreshing span of crime novels published in 2013 * Weekendavisen *
