Summary

Where were you the night Lina Stavred went missing?

‘A terrific twisting roller-coaster of a thriller.’ PETER JAMES
‘Intensely gripping.’ CHRIS WHITAKER

The case was closed.
Lina Stavred went missing 20 years ago. A local boy confessed to her murder – but the body was never found.

The records were sealed.
Since then, the people of Ådalen have avoided talking about that painful summer, preferring to leave the past untouched.

But we know you remember.
Now Lina’s murderer has reappeared. This is detective Eira Sjödin’s chance to untangle years of well-kept secrets – but the truth is something Ådalen would rather forget.

‘Atmospheric, immersive and utterly compelling.’ M. W. CRAVEN
‘Truly gripping!’ J. M. DALGLEISH
Midsommar meets Mare of Easttown . . . A police procedural with panache.’ O, THE OPRAH MAGAZINE

Strong characters, a great sense of place and plot twists galore leave you delighted that this is the first novel in a new series of Swedish noir.

Sunday Times Crime Club
Critic Reviews

We Know You Remember blends many of the choicest ingredients of Nordic noir, notably how the skiens of the present and past intertwine . . . there is much in its slow-cooked sophistication to savour.

The Times
Critic Reviews

Striking.

Financial Times
Critic Reviews

Among today’s abundant crime novels, it’s rare to find one that demands a second reading for its language and insight. We Know You Remember is one of that small group.

New York Review of Books
Critic Reviews

What a terrific twisting roller-coaster of a thriller - great characters, a terrific sense of place and a blind-sider of a payoff.

Peter James
Critic Reviews

Dark, disturbing, evocative and clever. We Know You Remember is masterfully plotted and intensely gripping.
