“Northern Sweden holds a special kind of magic. It's cold, lonely, and the people are tough and silent, or so the stereotype says. This is Asa Larsson's home turf and I find as much joy in reading her closely observed descriptions of the environment, as in following her intriguing plots.”
“Until you dig a hole, you plant a tree, you water it and make it survive, you haven't done a thing. You are just talking.”
