Review - Dark Secrets by Hjorth and Rosenfeldt

This duo of Swedish writers are experienced screen writers and that show in their mastery of character and plot twists in this terrific mystery. A stunning collection of flawed, clever and not-so-clever detectives investigate the disappearance and murder of a teenage boy. Sebastian Bergman, has come to town to sort out his family estate. He is a criminal psychologist and has his own reasons for infiltrating the investigation but finds that it takes him back to his own teenage years at the same high school. Sebastian is very clever, easily bored, and just a bit out of control in his personal life. He can be an embarrassing addition to an interview with witnesses and suspects but his insights help the team. Rumours spread quickly through the small town when first the school bully and then the principal are taken in for questioning. Loved It! Wendy
