Helsinki White
Helsinki White | James Thompson
1 post | 1 read
Inspector Kari Vaara, recovering from brain surgery, is back to doing police work—under circumstances most cops only dream of. Reporting directly to the national chief of police, Kari and his partners Milo and Sulo have been granted secrecy and autonomy for their new black-ops unit, and plenty of cash to work with, including whatever they can steal from Helsinki’s mobsters. But Kari's team is too good, and their actions have unintended consequences...The president of Finland wants the team on a new case: the vicious assassination of a prominent immigrants' rights activist. Against a backdrop of simmering hatred spreading across the country, Kari must solve a case that involves the kidnapping of a billionaire’s children, a Faustian bargain with a former French Legionnaire—and his own wife.

Updated list for #Finland for #readingeurope2020

Libby1 I loved the tagged book. 4y
Texreader @Libby1 It looks fantastic! And I love finding new Norwegian writers I can actually read (husband likes to read them in Norwegian, if you can imagine that). 4y
Libby1 Wonderful! How great he can read in Norwegian. The book is by a Norwegian author but is set in Finland. It was the first book I ever read set there, and I was fascinated. 4y
Texreader @Libby1 Husband is from Norway and so it wasn‘t until we were in London a few years ago that I found English translations of his fave Norwegian author Gunnar Staalesen. So it was nice to finally read books by an author my husband adores. 4y
Libby1 @Texreader - that is wonderful. I‘m glad you could make that connection. My husband is Northern Irish so we have an intercultural marriage, too. Some days we even share the same language! 🤣 Northern Irish vocabularies vary from place to place, and even after 20 years I stumble on new weird and wonderful words. 4y
