About this listen

It begins with a nursery rhyme. Nineteen minutes later you die....

The sixth gripping thriller in Lars Kepler’s best-selling series featuring Joona Linna. Perfect for fans of Stieg Larsson and Jo Nesbo.

There’s a face at the window.
A stranger wearing a mask stands in the shadow of a garden. He’s watching his first victim through the window. He will kill him slowly, make it last - play him a nursery rhyme - make him pay.

A killer in your house.
There’s only one person the police can turn to - ex-Detective Joona Linna - but he’s serving time in a high-security prison. So they offer him a chance to secure his freedom: help Superintendent Saga Bauer track down the vicious killer known as the Rabbit Hunter before he strikes again.

Only one man can stop him.
Soon another three victims have been murdered, and Stockholm is in the grip of terror. Joona Linna must catch a disturbed predator whose trail of destruction leads back to one horrific night of violence - with consequences more terrifying than anyone could have imagined....

Critic reviews

"You want to be disturbed, you want to be distressed? This is one for you. Chilling and enthralling from the outset." (Paul Finch, Sunday Times best-selling author of Shadows)

The voices given to the main characters, in particular Joona Lina, are quite at odds with the characters as written. They sound slightly lame and stupid.

Terrible voice characterization

This instalment in the Joona Linna series started off very slowly for me, but once it found it's stride, it was another brilliant addition. The other issue I had with this instalment is around one of the sex scenes. I've found some of the spicy scenes bizarre and unwarranted throughout the series as a whole, but this hit new heights with the 'glory hole' story arc - once you've listened you will understand.

The book, once it got going, hit the usual gripping pace and provided a mystery suspect whose identity and motive I struggled to guess till close to the end.

Not my favourite of the series, but still great.

Enjoyable thriller if a little predictable. There weren’t too many unexpected surprises but the story was “different” enough to retain interest. I will certainly read another in this series

Good listen
