Reviews

• “The efforts of the independent, gutsy reporter to establish the truth make for an enjoyable and fast-paced thriller.”

• “Sweden’s new cult character!”

• “Exposed is set eight years before Liza Marklund’s The Bomber, and it’s a more substantial book, with stronger characterisation and psychological insight. /…/ It’s a cleverly structured story with an unexpected twist at the end.”

• “Marklund is a first-rate commercial author. /…/ Marklund observes carefully; the images she uses to evoke things, atmospheres, and people seem to come easily: even under the pressure of a looming editorial deadline, these images retain the correct caption. /…/ Marklund’s prose flows lightly from her pen, without becoming orotund and prolix.”

• “[Exposed] will definitely appeal to fans of Patricia Cornwell and Jan Burke.”

• “Required reading for fans of high voltage suspense.”

• “An excellent crime novel that zooms in on the exposed situation of women in society. The ending, which concerns Annika Bengtzon personally, is magnificent.”

• “Marklund’s thrillers deserve their success, they have a lot more to give than just a viable, unexpected crime plot. The vivid and believable setting is Marklund’s greatest merit.”

• “Annika Bengtzon is a walking vitamin injection for the Swedish crime novel.”

• “… an excellent crime novel, elegantly crowned with a cynical ending of good old mark.”

• “The similarities between authors Marklund and Larsson includes an incredible knack for weaving complicated stories into very readable and compelling thrillers.”

• “[Liza Marklund] has a distinctive voice, and she features an engaging central character in the person of the demon investigative newspaper reporter Annika Bengtzon.”
