En la nueva novela de Camilla Läckberg, la reina del suspense europeo con más de 12 millones de ejemplares vendidos en Europa, Erica y Patrik tienen que resolver un enigma del pasado para evitar un horrible crimen en el presente. Hace cuarenta años, una familia desapareció sin dejar rastro. Y ahora, otra familia está amenazada. Cuando ya lo has perdido todo, puede que alguien quiera destruirte a ti también.Tras la muerte accidental de su hijo pequeño, Ebba y Mårten se trasladan a la isla de Valö para rehacer su vida. Ahí, se instalan en una granja en la que vivió la familia de Ebba hace muchos años. Pero la tragedia los sigue acechando, y un incendio, a todas luces provocado, saca a relucir la historia siniestra que pesa sobre la granja. Hace treinta años toda la familia de Ebba desapareció sin dejar rastro. Solo se salvó ella, entonces un bebé de un año, a quien encontraron sola en la casa. Desde ese momento, recibe una misteriosa felicitación el día de su cumpleaños, firmada con una simple G. Patrik abre una investigación, y Erica, siempre en busca de material narrativo, empieza a tirar del hilo de la historia de la granja por su cuenta. Un acto impulsivo de Anna, la hermana de Erica, aún afectada por la pérdida del bebé que esperaba, revelará la verdad de golpe.

    Buried Angels by Camilla Lackberg; (2 1/2*)A mediocre, repetitive and tiring read. I found it exhausting to 'see' Erica's parenting habits and shallowness once again.

    The best of her books so far.

    I really enjoyed this book but then I'm a fan of Camilla Lakberg's work. A good read with enough characters to have an interesting story but not too many to start getting confusing.
    Having the story from the past gradually catching up with the current tale works well (as it does every time) and adds to the intrigue.
    Worth a read.

    Easy read for a long haul flight, though rather a forced plot with unrealistic police procedures ... Erica's investigations.

    If you see it one way, the new book of the Fjallbacka series is nothing new. They have to investigate a crime originating in the past and in some chapters we will know the lifes of these past characters too. But I liked this book much more than the previous one which was full of forced mysticism and story from the past connected to nothing. In this one I enjoyed the private life stories of the characters and, unlike lots of people, I liked the ending as well.

    This is the 8th instalment in this author's series featuring Patrik Hedstrom & Erica Falck. It's the story of a woman who lost everything as a child & the five boys who knew her then. They're adults now & on a collision course to meet again as old secrets threaten to surface.
    Common themes include nazism, antisemitism, the loss of a child & fire...what it destroys & what it leaves behind. Each of the 6 characters has been shaped by these events & whether they like it or not the past is rearing its' ugly head.
    Ebba was abandoned as a toddler after her family disappeared from the island of Valo. Their fate remains a mystery. After losing their son, she & her husband Tobias return to the old house with dreams of turning it into a B&B. It's a bit of a wreck & needs a lot of work, mirroring the state of their marriage.
    In subsequent chapters we are introduced to 5 men. They are all wealthy & successful but have little else in common. Yet they are bound by the events of one night on the island more than 20 years ago. For the first time, they are all in Fjallbacka & learning Ebba is just across the water is stirring up old memories.
    Meanwhile, main protagonists Patrik & Erica have their hands full with everyday life. Patrik is a local cop & Erica tries to carve out time to write while caring for their 3 children.
    In alternating chapters beginning in 1908, we are told of another little girl who lost her family. As the story progresses, we learn the fate of 4 generations of women. Each of their lives is full of heartbreak & disappointment, spanning both world wars to the present. Eventually it becomes clear who these women are & I found myself more wrapped up in their stories than those of the present.
    It all begins with strange events at the house on Valo. First, someone tries to burn it down as Ebba & Tobias sleep. Then sinister evidence is found beneath the floorboards. This brings Patrik to the island & the old case file of Ebba's missing family is quickly exhumed. One of Patrik's colleagues was part of the original investigation & has closer ties than anyone knows.
    As usual, Erica senses the makings of a book & insinuates herself into the investigation. Before it's all over, she & Patrik will encounter betrayal, dirty politicians & personal danger.
    This is not for someone looking for a realistic police procedural. Yes, there are shootouts & murders but oddly enough, it's more in the "cozy" vein of the genre. It's a clean read (no sex, swearing, etc) and Patrik & Erica come across as a modern day Nick & Nora. Also, her inclusion in police affairs stretches credibility & the investigation itself is lax & full of holes. The author frequently uses Erica's tendency to rush off half cocked as a plot device to move things along but in the end, it's just irritating.
    It's difficult to give examples without spilling the beans but the plot has some issues as well. No reason is given for some events & the explanation for a major development is quickly glossed over & dropped.
    I have read the other books & enjoyed them but I'm afraid this one missed the mark for me. The writing is simplistic & some of the phraseology was odd though this may be due to blips in translation. Although each book is centred around our intrepid couple, I found them the least interesting characters & enjoyed the historical aspect of the book much more. Erica's inner Nancy Drew is allowed to run amok, leaving the reader shaking their head at her implausible actions & just plain dumb decisions. That no one in the police force, even Patrik, reins her in is completely unbelievable.
    Maybe it's me. Maybe my tastes have changed. Maybe I've read too many books where the female lead portrayed as an amateur sleuth who out thinks the cops is used as a plot device. Either way, I doubt I'll continue with this series.
    If you're an über- fan of Hedstrom & Falck, by all means grab it. If you haven't read this author, please ignore the comparisons with Larsson & Nesbo trumpeted in the promotional blurb. Scandinavia is all they have in common.

    I liked this one better than the previous Lackberg. It was very unpredictable and addictive. I have had enough of Erika disliking her role as a mother though. Get over yourself, I'm thinking all the time.
