Joona Linna Synopsis: In The Hypnotist by Lars Kepler (book 1 of the series), Detective Inspector Joona Linna is interested in a case – a father, mother and daughter have been murdered in Tumba, Sweden. The killer could be anywhere. The oldest daughter was able to escape, but now she may be in danger. Her brother survived the attack, making him the sole witness, but he has suffered over a hundred knife wounds and is in shock. Linna believes the boy cannot be questioned in the traditional method, but he can be hypnotized. He gets Dr. Erik Bark to agree to hypnotize the boy, even though Dr. Bark had given hypnotism up due to the questionable ethics and emotional scars it brings. After breaking his own promise to himself to hypnotize the boy, it causes a chain of horrible events to unravel.
