Ingen No One

Vanessa Frank #7

While winter holds a firm grip on Stockholm, a business mogul is shot to death at an exclusive private party. In another part of town, a gang member is killed at a hookah lounge. As the number of shootings escalates, detective Vanessa Frank and her colleagues must act. They are faced with a new Sweden where teens are being used as child soldiers. In this new reality it is not enough to find whoever held the gun to solve the crimes.

When a truck is found by the side of the freeway with several dead immigrants inside, the situation at the police station is more than pressing, and Vanessa feels it slipping away from her.

Miranda Nunez goes out on a dangerous journey on a boat from West Africa. Her goal is to reach Sweden, where she desperately needs to find her son. The dream of giving him a better future in Sweden is crushed when she ends up in the hands of human traffickers. But there are others chasing her, for reasons she can only imagine.

No One is a breathtaking thriller about the present society in free fall and a new, rougher, Sweden where organized crime is spreading. But in the darkness, there is also solidarity and man’s most powerful motive: to protect its children and give them a better future.

No One is the seventh installment in the bestselling series about detective Vanessa Frank.

Reviews

  • “Out of all Swedish authors, Pascal Engman is the only one that I trust, book launch after book launch. /…/ Pascal Engman captures Swedish reality with great intuition and combines that with top-notch fiction – and I love that combination, novel after novel.”

    ELLE Sweden, Sweden

  • “Believably and skillfully, Pascal Engman manages to depict a pitch-black reality without it being hopeless.”

    Dagens Nyheter, Sweden

  • “With his usual drive, Pascal Engman tells a story which (unfortunately) feels terrifyingly relevant.”

    Damernas Värld, Sweden

  • “The Stockholm milieu, all the way down to street level, is very well depicted. The language is vivid and the story flows smoothly so that you almost forget that it is a text you are reading. /…/ As a whole, [No One] is a very strong and captivating story about some of our time’s vast societal problems.”
