Reviews (Danih Edition)

I am truly fascinated by the fact that the books describe TRUE CRIME – real stories. The fantastic investigative work done to uncover all the details is amazing.

Charming settings, historical intricacies, and strong women – what’s not to love?

‘The depiction of time and the environments in the novels are very clear and finely drawn…’

Eiler Jensen, The Association of Municipal Centres for Pedagogical Learning

In the third volume of the Lendorph & la Cour detective series the lives of journalist and self employed photographer Anna Lendorph and police detective Christian la Cour becomes more entangled and interesting as they dive into the surprisingly international crime world of Copenhagen anno 1910. The crimes are based on real events of a 110 years ago, and many of the people surrounding the fictitious main characters did also make their mark on the Copenhagen society of the day. The criminal minds are shown to come from all layers of society.

The story is told without unnecessary drama and appears well researched, the characters of the two previous volumes are developed further and it is easy to fall in love with the highly intelligent Anna and Christian, as the story unfolds. They may be just a little too perfect for real life, but then in fiction anything is possible.
