A Killer Instinct Novel - The Joona Linna Series
When a seventeen-year-old orphan goes missing, Joona Linna discovers eerie connections to two other seemingly unrelated cases. It's clear that they're looking for a serial killer—one whose deadly rampage has just begun. But as the police close in on their suspect, Joona finds himself in a seemingly impossible race against time to save the lives of the murderer's next young victims.
A bar-raising entry in a series that unfailingly blends streamlined plotting, smart psychological suspense, and explosive conclusions with gritty portrayals of human evil.
Booklist, US
The ability of Kepler to ratchet up the tension en route to a stunning reveal and an eminently fair solution is remarkable. This merits comparisons with the best of Thomas Harris.
