A review by kmmi_booklover
The Second Deadly Sin by Åsa Larsson, Laurie Thompson

5.0

I received The Second Deadly Sin from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This is the 5th book in the Rebecka Martinsson series, but the first that I have read. It worked great as a standalone, and definitely left me wanting to read the first four.

Rebecka Martinsson is a prosecutor has been taken off a murder case unjustly. She begins investigating the deaths of several of the victims family members. The story switches between the current murder case and the WWI era murder of Elina Pettersson, a young school teacher. I really love that some of the side characters in this book are also very well-developed. I'm a huge fan of Swedish author Camilla Lackberg. If you like Lackberg, I think you will enjoy Larsson too.
