The Indian Bride
The Indian Bride | Karin Fossum
3 posts | 7 read | 8 to read
When perpetual bachelor Gunder Jomann goes to India for two weeks and comes home married, the town of Elvestad is stunned. On the day the Indian bride is supposed to arrive, the battered body of a woman is found in a meadow on the outskirts of town. None of the "good people of Elvestad" can believe that anyone among them would be capable of such a brutal murder. But in his quiet, formal way, Inspector Konrad Sejer understands that good people can commit atrocious deeds, and that no one is altogether innocentincluding the caf owner who knows too much, the girl who wants to be a chief witness, and the bodybuilder with no outlet for his terrible strength. Another brilliantly conceived, dark novel from one of Europes most successful crime writers.

The characters are well drawn but the atmosphere is lacking. This story could just as easily been set down the street. Also, there was very little in the way of resolution and further doubts were raised at the end of the book.

This was a good installment in the Inspecter Sejer mystery series, in which an Indian woman is murdered upon her arrival to a small town in Norway. I have mixed feelings about the ending, though.

Second book finished for #NutsInMay! @Andrew65
