Paramount+ has released a first look of the trailer for The Burning Girls, Hans Rosenfeldt’s adaptation of C.J. Tudor’s bestselling novel with the same name.

The chilling series sees single mum and reverend Jack Brooks (Samantha Morton) moving into a new village with her daughter Flo (Bridgerton’s Ruby Stokes), only to discover there are some strange local superstitions — and sightings of little girls who may or may not be real.

The Burning Girls will premiere on Paramount+ on October 19^th.

The Scottish police drama Crime, developed and written by Trainspotting‘s Irvine Welsh together with Dean Cavanagh, is based on Welsh’s own novel of the same name and will arrive on ITVX on September 21. The second season is directed by Trygve Allister Diesen and Anthony Neilson.

Dougray Scott’s performance in the first season recently landed him an International Emmy nomination for Best Actor, and in this second season, he’ll be leading a star-studded cast of British talent, including Joanna Vanderham and John Simm.

In northern Sweden Ewa wakes up and reaches for the phone. On the other side of the planet, in Western USA, her heart – Matilda, her daughter – is wandering wherever her feet take her. The days come and go, the thrills and relationships start and end. Adventure waits in the next encounter, in the next bottle of wine. She’s left Sweden behind. Left Ewa. When Matilda stops answering the phone, the loneliness pushes Ewa out into the summer night, where she becomes another, someone who dares.

In the shadow of the Rocky Mountains, Tyler starts yet another shift at the rundown motel that’s become his world. Every night is the same, until he meets her. Tyler and Matilda take to the road, towards the city of dreams. It will be a journey which echoes across the Atlantic, to the pale summer night where Ewa is.

Bleak, romantic, gritty and haunting – Ruin the World Tonight is cracked roads and pine-needles under your feet, dust in your lungs and aching summer nights. It is also the award-winning Stina Jackson’s first venture into literary fiction.

A new mystery lands itself on Detective Agency No. 2’s table when a jewelry thief escapes from Askmo prison. The thief has made her way out via a laundry wan, but has now gone missing without a trace. The launderette happens to be located in Riverton and it is therefore highly likely that the escaped inmate is hiding in the Detective Agency’s very own neighborhood. Will Tiril, Oliver and Ocho be able to trace her down? And will they be able to find the precious stolen Maximilian-jewelry that were never located upon the thief’s arrest?

Hjorth & Rosenfeldt are back with the eighth installment in their international bestselling series about criminal psychologist Sebastian Bergman.

The national homicide unit has been in deep crisis ever since it was revealed that one of their colleagues is a serial killer. Vanja Lithner struggles to save her department when a woman in her sixties is found murdered on a pig farm outside the city of Västerås. Signs indicate that the deed was carried out with a special person in mind: Sebastian Bergman.

Over the years, Sebastian has helped the homicide unit solve numerous cases, but after recent events, he is persona non grata. Will his return be the homicide unit’s salvation or downfall? Meanwhile, Tim Cunningham, a former client of Sebastian’s, is found dead. Tim also lost a child in the tsunami of 2004, but it turns out that there are many question marks surrounding the Cunningham family and that Christmas almost twenty years ago. Question marks that perhaps Tim’s daughter Cathy can help clear up.

Hjorth & Rosenfeldt’s bestselling Sebastian Bergman series has sold over 7 million copies worldwide.

Fresh figures from the streaming giant Netflix show that A Day and a Half has sprinted up the charts – becoming the most watched non-English language film in the world at the moment. The suspenseful thriller has now been seen by 11 million households.

Martin Widmark’s The Dinosaur Mystery is still No. 1 on the weekly bestseller list for children’s books in Sweden. New among the top placements this week is Kristina Ohlsson’s just published Wheel of Fire, which claims the No. 4 spot.

The darkly humorous novel by internationally acclaimed author Antti Tuomainen showcases humanity at its most bare – in middle age, suspected of murder, in a sauna.

A cold-blooded killer strikes at the hottest moment: the head of a sauna heater company is murdered in the sauna. Who has turned up the temperature time and time again and burnt him to death?

The evidence points in the direction of Anni Korpinen, the top salesperson and potential successor at Puhti Saunas. And just as if being middle-aged, in a marriage that has lost its purpose, and struggling with work weren’t enough, Anni realizes that she must be quicker than both the police and the murderer to uncover who is behind it all – before it’s too late.

You must be quiet now! Promise. No messing around or horseplay. If you’re going to read this book you have to be totally….utterly….quiet. Yes, zip it, because here comes another hilarious picture book by a funny little man called David Sundin.

Just like in his previous children’s books (that did not want to be read) this one too invites to mischief, conversations and silly antics between reader and listener. After all, it’s not always easy to be quiet while you read a book where baby chicks are chirping super loudly and your index fingers are just itching to play the drums: TUM! BONG! CRISH!
