Sinossi
Il commissario Van Veeteren è stanco, e medita la pensione. E una vacanza fuori programma, per dedicarsi a musica e scacchi. Per troppo tempo ha rovistato negli angoli bui dell’esistenza e ora vuole tirarsene fuori. Ma qualcosa di irresistibile e oscuro continua, nonostante tutto, ad attrarlo. Una donna misteriosa denuncia la sparizione di una ragazzina dalla colonia estiva di un discusso pastore alla guida della setta della Vita Pura. Alla sparizione segue la scoperta della tragedia, e la tranquillità della cittadina di Sorbinowo è travolta. In breve, le indagini sono a un punto morto. Ma Van Veeteren non si ferma, e segue il caso in tutta solitudine, lasciandosi guidare dall’intuito, fino a trovare un’esile e illogica traccia…

Author Hakan Nesser can do no wrong in my eyes in the Inspector Van Veeteren series. As always, the inspector is introspective, but especially so in this, the fifth in this series of books. "VV" as many of his fellow detectives refer to him, is again considering retirement from the police force, but Leggi tutto
I was disappointed by this book. I'd read all the other Nesser books so far translated into English and I was looking forward to this one, so I felt a little let down. The story opens promisingly enough with a mysterious phonecall in which an unidentified woman claims a girl has been murdered at a s Leggi tutto
I really like VV - he's human, intuative, and deeply moved by the horrors he has seen including the little girls in this book. It was heading toward a 5 star read, but the ending of the book was weak to me. Nevertheless - the telling of the story was superb. I will read more of the VV mysteries and
My first introduction to Håkan Nesser, “The Inspector and silence” affords the reader a thoroughly enjoyable sojourn to Sorbinowo, a forested Swedish lake side town. Looks can be deceptive however and the forest, along with the town, hides a dark secret that local police cannot fathom – enter chief Leggi tutto
