The latest thriller from 'one of Scandinavia's best crime writers' (The Times). For fans of Henning Mankell and Jo Nesbo.

The price of fame . . . is DEATH

When Jenny is spotted by a high-profile modelling agency, she goes from ordinary schoolgirl to celebrity overnight. Suddenly her life is a whirlwind of parties and glamour.

Agnes used to be a model too - but now she lies in a hospital bed, slowly being destroyed by an eating disorder. Her father sits by her day after day, praying that his only remaining daughter survives.

An attempted murder during a lavish photoshoot means that Jenny's and Agnes's lives will soon intersect in the most terrifying of ways . . . Because someone is watching them. Someone with a plan.

Can Detective Anders Knutas figure out who it is in time to stop a terrible justice being served?

Reviews for The Dangerous Game: Anders Knutas series 8

Scandinavian noir at its very best * Irish Independent * Writers such as Henning Mankell may outsell Jungstedt in the UK, but - if there is any justice - she will not remain caviar to the general -- Barry Forshaw There is an icy dispassionate grip to Jungstedt's writing that recalls Henning Mankell * Metro * She is in total control of plot and pace, conveys chilling atmosphere and her characters are well above average for believability * The Times * Jungstedt delivers excellent clammy atmosphere and a constant premonition of weird deaths to come. She's becoming one of Scandinavia's best crime writers, no mean compliment in a crowded field * The Times *
