*THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER*


FROM THE WINNER OF THE Crime Writers' Awards International Dagger and the GLASS KEY AWARD.

Two little girls go missing on the same day in Stockholm. Their disappearances are never explained. In time, the investigations are abandoned.

A chance discovery puts Detective Ewert Grens back on the trail five years later. His own personal trauma makes him determined to find out what happened to these children who were snatched from a supermarket and a car park and never seen again.

His search leads him into the recesses of the dark web and the discovery of a paedophile ring that can only be cracked from the inside. Grens is forced to call upon his retired partner, Piet Hoffman, the best undercover operative he knows, to try to infiltrate the group.

They will have only one chance - but are they up to the darkest challenge of their lives?

Critics Review

Erik Axl Sund, bestselling author of THE CROW GIRL
A perfect example of Scandi noir
The Times
A complex, white-knuckle read
Observer
Anders Roslund is one of the best in the genre, always with an important agenda
Skånska Dagbladet
One of the country's top suspense novelists.
Jönköpings-Posten
[Roslund] is a brilliantly talented crime writer that has succeeded once again.
Dagens Nyheter
An extremely nerve-racking page-turner...Above all there is something about the language and character portrayals, something that feels stripped down and vulnerable, that makes this new novel completely unputdownable.
Svenska Dagbladet
Sweet Dreams is unrelentingly thrilling...The combination of edge-of-the-seat thrills - and the occasional bit of explosive action - along with strong portrayals of both investigative police, next of kin and Grens and Hoffman, makes this a piece of crime poetry of the very darkest shades.
Skånska Dagbladet

Devilishly thrilling. /.../ Anders Roslund's novel Sweet Dreams kept me awake far into the early hours in order to finish reading.

Expressen
A riveting and well-written thriller about a difficult subject matter.
