About this eBook
Don't Look Back is the second novel in Los Angeles Times Book Prize–winning author Karin Fossum's Inspector Sejer mystery series.
"Sejer belongs alongside the likes of Adam Dalgliesh and Inspector Morse—a gifted detective and troubled man."—Boston Globe
At the foot of the imposing Kollen Mountain lies a small, idyllic village, where neighbors know neighbors and children play happily in the streets. But when the body of a teenage girl is found by the lake at the mountaintop, the town's tranquility is shattered forever.
Annie was strong, intelligent, and loved by everyone. What went so terribly wrong? Doggedly, yet subtly, Inspector Sejer uncovers layer upon layer of distrust and lies beneath the town's seemingly perfect façade.
"Psychologically astute, subtly horrifying."—New York Times Book Review
"Build[s] to a heart-stopping conclusion."—Entertainment Weekly

A real page-turner, couldn't put this down! First time reading this author, I enjoyed this intriging and suspenseful look inside the lives of the inhabitants of a small Norwegian village following the disappearance (and odd reappearance) five year old Ragnhild, and the discovery of the dead body of 15 year old Annie.The story is believable and readable to the point where I could not put it down!!!
