The Black Path by Åsa Larsson – Review

The Black Path by Åsa Larsson

Several of the main characters in The Black Path appeared in Larsson’s previous two mysteries in the series, but the quick recap of what happened to them — especially lawyer Rebecka Martinsson — are adequate for the purposes of this book, which stands readily enough on its own as a police procedural.

The investigators on the case are family-woman Anna-Maria Mella and Sven-Erik Stålnacke, called out on a cold night in northern Sweden when a frozen body is discovered. The woman is soon identified as Inna Wattrang, head of information for a high-flying company called Kallis Mining, but the peculiar way she was murdered leave many questions open.
