#RivetingReads: Ewa Sherman recommends KEEPER by Johana Gustawsson
This French author with a contemporary European attitude has created a brilliant female duo: a profiler and a true-crime writer. These heroines face an uncomfortable and intriguing case that echoes Jack the Ripper’s murders of 19th century London. As Keeper travels through time, through locations (London and Falkenberg in Sweden), and through the emotions and terror provoked by a serial killer, it offers a potent mix of historical crime aspects, gripping modern investigation and captivating story-telling.
