Shadow by Karin Alvtegen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Such a dark novel.
How does the death of an old woman connect to a child abandoned in an amusement park decades ago? And how will their connection ruin an elderly Nobel prize winning author’s family and reputation?
I love this author’s ability to take the reader inside each character’s head. Seeing the outer actions versus the inner thoughts is so compelling. Seeing how each person’s perspective of events collides with other realities is illuminating in itself. Makes one wonder what filters we all have up. But in the novel the mixture of all these disparate realities is what makes the grim thriller.
