Ruthless is book #3 in the Nordic Noir Kaldan and Schafer series by Anne Mette Hancock. I love this series that pairs Héloïse Kaldan, an investigative journalist, and Erik Schafer, a Copenhagen detective. In Ruthless, Héloïse is volunteering for a hospice charity when she stumbles across a deathbed confession that leads to her and Schafer investigating a cold case.
I highly recommend this book and series, especially if you love dark crime novels. It’s fast paced, full of twists, and has an ending that is shocking (I really did not see it coming 🤯).
Thank you @crookedlanebooks and @netgalley for allowing me to read this book ahead of publication in exchange for my honest review.
