Deep as death

Ivar, Katja2020
Books
The second in a three-book series featuring Hella Mauzer, set in Helsinki in 1953, following on from }Evil Things{. A homage to Agatha Christie, from an author who grew up in Russia and the US and now lives in Paris. It all begins when a prostitute is found floating upside down in Helsinki Harbour - a low-priority job that gets passed back to Hella. It's beginning to look like a serial killer is at work when another woman narrowly escapes being driven into the harbour, handcuffed to the car by her client. What begins like a taut whodunit turns into something more tantalising as Hella turns her attention to different suspects, often to the consternation of the fascinating Inspector Mustonen, charismatic, ambitious and trying desperately to live up to the standards of his wife.
