Kali ni nak review pula buku bestseller nukilan Camilla Lackberg. Buku ni ada series tau, tentang cerita Detective Patrick Hedström dan isterinya Erica Falck yang merupakan penulis novel dalam menyelesaikan kes pembunuhan. Buku ni buku keenam kalau tak silap. To be honest, masa mula-mula baca memang blur sikit. Sat dia cerita detective dan keluarganya. Sat tiba-tiba pasal head police kat headquarters. Sat Nathalie. Sat Matte. Tiba-tiba muncul pula Madeleine. Tiba-tiba Fjällbacka 1871.

Tapi lepas baca sampai akhir-akhir tu mula nampak connection dia. Watak-watak yang bertaburan mula bertemu. Masa tu macam 'oooo begini rupanya..' 'ooo begitu rupanya..' Memang ada ciri-ciri cerita detektif dan misteri. Banyak yang tak sangka berlaku. Patut bestseller.

Ni lebih kurang ceritanya:

Mats Sverin seorang yang agak misteri. Dia seorang yang disukai ramai tapi tak pernah nak bual tentang kehidupannya. Peribadinya yang menjadi satu misteri menyebabkan pihak polis sukar teruskan penyiasatan kes pembunuhan tersebut kerana tiada sesiapa yang tahu kehidupan peribadi mangsa tersebut.

Tu je la sipnopsis yang sy bagi. Taknak jadi spoiller. Nak tau apa jadi kena baca sendiri.

Till then.
