A review by askatknits
The Shadow Murders by Jussi Adler-Olsen

4.0

A mystery within a mystery... such a perfect thing to do in a Scandinavian Noir novel! And this book is an excellent reminder that not all mysteries are solved.

I have long loved Mørck and his Department Q team. They are a well oiled machine and work incredibly well together. This novel takes place mid-'corona' (as it is affectionately called! lol) and cases are spiking which is playing havoc with how Carl and his team can work. But they manage some very furtive work arounds and as the clock ticks down... will their rush to catch the killer be successful? No spoilers here, sorry!

I highly recommend this series (and I cannot wait for the next installment!)
