Leif G.W. Persson Synopsis: In Between Summer’s Longing and Winter’s End by Leif G.W. Persson, a young man falls to his death from a window in Stockholm. The police want to write it off as an accident, or perhaps a suicide, but superintendent Lars Johansson doesn’t agree. It isn’t long before it is revealed that the young man was an American journalist, working on a project involving his uncle, a CIA agent, who may have had ties to the highest reaches of Sweden’s political community. Johansson’s search for answers will lead him to New York and the FBI Academy in Virginia, and finally down into a deep web of international espionage, backroom politics, and greed, exposing the sheer incompetence that led to a horrible tragedy.
The bomb! My favorite Scandinavian author.
