Department Q - Cold Cases
26 January 2013 - 10:51am
I read the first book of Jussi Adler-Olsen's Department Q series The Keeper of Lost Causes - and just knew I would be in a for another fantastic read with the second book - The Absent One.
Department Q is the division of the Copenhagen P.D. dedicated to the resolution of cold cases. The staff is not large - it is only Detective Carl Morck and his assistant Assad. The characters and their interplay are a big reason I am so enamoured of this series.
Another Scandanavian author for you

I first 'discovered Anne Holt when I read the Edgar nominated 1222 featuring recurring protagonist Hanne Wilhelmsen last year. Holt is a Norwegian author and started the Hanne series in 1993. Holt has worked for the Oslo P.D., as a lawyer and a journalist and news anchor as well. This extensive background has added much authenticity to this crime series.
Fantastic plot line!

I had never heard of Anne Holt before - she's described as Norway's #1 bestselling crime writer. After finishing her latest book 1222, I can see why.
