Review

"Beautifully portrayed in scenic prose, full of insinuations, humour, pain and a palpable panic you can almost touch' -Information 'Riveting...with great humour Sheen portrays her main character and that is where the strength of this novel lies' - Svenska Dagbladet


Product Description

Former actress Margaret Moss is not your usual private investigator. Fond of her vodka, divorced and living in Oslo, she supports herself and her punk daughter with routine assignments such as tailing faithless husbands and wives. The tempo picks up when her friend Rakel Winkelmann, the renowned actress, disappears and Rakel's sister engages Moss to look for her without involving the police. She has very little to go on, but a visit to Rakel's cousin brings her into contact with a group of neo-Nazis. Other clues lead to a mountain resort and Rakel's telephone lover. There Moss meets up with truck driver Roland Rud, her modern-day knight in shining armour. Piece by piece she uncovers an intrigue with roots in the theatre as well as the outside world, and becomes a pawn in a fatal game...

3.0 out of 5 stars Contrived plot, 6 Sep 2008
By Blyth (Northumberland, England) - See all my reviews
The plot is contrived and the story line not particularly believable. Neo Nazis are thrown in for good measure.

I read the book on holiday. It is not taxing, but is readable, say if you're lying on a beach somewhere.
