A Hint of Amber: A Sailor in the Service of the Realm

On New Year's Eve 1989, a man was found murdered in an apartment on Södermalm, Stockholm, but the case was eventually shelved as unsolved. Thirty-five years later, a woman dies in the Parliamentary Library. It appears to be an accident, but a most unexpected figure suggests a connection between the two deaths: the victims smell wrong.

When we last left Charlie, he was stepping out of the pub No. 7 into the Gothenburg twilight. Now he turns up in the capital, barging uninvited into Detective Inspector Jenny Gillberg's investigation. With his infallible talent for questioning authority, he is wildly unsuitable for the grand parlors—yet precisely the right person to have on a murder case.

"A crime novel that refuses to settle within the boundaries of the genre. With wit, sharpness, and great storytelling flair, the author crafts an original and believable novel that stays with you long after the final page."

— Amanda Ritterfeldt, literary reader
