The writing in the water : a thriller / John Ajvide Lindqvist ; translated by Michael Meigs.
"Julia Malmros is thriving. A former police officer making her way in the world of crime fiction, she's turning popularity into fame by writing the next book in a world-renowned suspense series. To help her research, Julia connects with Kim Ribbing. More hacker than man, Kim bears a dark past that's the very antithesis of the promising future she has planned for herself. They share an undeniable spark; yet it's likely to implode. That's the least of Julia's worries. Hounded by publicity, Julia retreats to her cottage in the Stockholm archipelago. It's there that she begins to reevaluate her life, reunite with Kim, and return to her investigative roots after tragedy unfolds on a nearby pier. The victim: a billionaire, her childhood friend. Julia's ex, Jonny, leads the official investigation, but Julia knows there's no such thing as coincidence. And as she and Kim follow the trail of cash, corruption follows dangerously close behind." -- Provided by publisher.
