A Death in Denmark (2023)
(Gabriel Praest, book 1)
Amulya Malladi
"Not your usual ex-cop turn PI mystery! Malladi captures the Scandinavian sparseness with powerful dialogue and a true sense of place... An excellent read!"

Under a Veiled Moon (2022)
(Inspector Michael Corravan, book 2)
Karen Odden
