Hardback: Seven days. Three killings. One woman who knows too much.
Journalist Annika Bengtzon is asleep next to her husband when the call comes in at 3.22am on a frozen December night.
It's the weekend, and she still has Christmas shopping to do.
But within minutes, all thoughts of seasonal goodwill are left behind.
Annika is looking at a nightmare scene of police tape and rubble, trying to get the best possible picture for her newspaper.
A bomb has not only destroyed Stockholm's new Olympic arena just months before the Summer Games, it has blown someone to pieces.
Putting a city on edge with fears of a terrorist on the loose, the Bomber will become Annika's biggest story - and maybe her last.
About the author: Liza Marklund is an author, publisher, journalist, columnist and goodwill ambassador for UNICEF. Her crime novels featuring the relentless reporter Annika Bengtzon instantly became an international hit, and sold 13 million copies in 30 languages to date.
She has achieved the unique feat being the number one bestseller in all five Nordic countries, as well as the USA, and she has been awarded numerous prizes, including a nomination for the Glass Key for best Scandinavian crime novel.
