説明
Shortlisted, CWA Duncan Lawrie Dagger
Two women pursued by pasts they can't escape...
When a tragic car crash throws together two strangers, they have no idea how their lives will be transformed. Violent family secrets at the centre of both their lives threaten to surface, and slowly they are forced to confront the shame they have always carried with them.
A taut psychological thriller, Shame subtly explores the devastating powers of fear, oppressive religion and forbidden sexuality. With all the elements of classic noir, Karin Alvtegen has written her finest book to date.
'A brilliant portrait of a woman nearing mental breakdown...Alvtegen at her best.' Daily Telegraph
Karin Alvtegen is known as the Queen of Crime in Scandinavia. Her first novel, Missing, was awarded the premier Scandinavian crime writing award and was also nominated for the Poloni Award and Best Crime Novel 2000 in Sweden. Alvtegen lives in Stockholm.
