Charlo Torp has problems. He´s lost his life and his job, and now his gambling debts are driving his daughter away from him. Desperate, his solution is to rob an elderly woman of her money and silverware. But Harriet Krohn fights back, and Charlo loses control.
Wracked with guilt, Charlo attempts to rebuild his life. But the police are catching up with him, and Inspector Konrad Sejer has never lost a case yet.
Told through the eyes of the killer, The Murder of Harriet Krohn poses the question: How far would you go to turn your life around, and could you live with yourself afterwards?
This is the seventh book about Inspector Sejer.
Fossums presentation of her characters is marked by an intelligence and compassion that is not often found in the pages of crime fiction.
