Another great Dicte Svendsen story from Denmark’s Queen of Crime.
There is no beauty in death, thinks crime journalist Dicte Svendsen. And so it would appear as she arrives at her next murder scene.
A young woman has been found in the carpark next to the sports stadium. Dressed in jeans and a pink T-shirt with ‘I love U’ written on it, in she sits propped up against a car. The words ‘rag doll’ come to mind as she seems to be held together by skin and hair alone; as if someone had removed the skeleton. Not only that, her eye sockets were empty.
This was the work of a very particular killer.
