PATRON PICKS -- SOME KIND OF PEACE

Corrie's pick is Some Kind of Peace, by Camilla Grebe & Asa Traff

About the book:
34-year-old psychotherapist Siri Bergman is terrified of the dark.  Living alone in a picturesque, but isolated area east of Stockholm, she has tried hard to convince herself that she has moved on since her husband Stefan, died in a diving accident several years ago.  But when she goes to bed, Siri leaves all the lights on, unable to shake the feeling that someone is watching her at night.

So when one night she wakes up to find that the house is pitch black, and the flashlight she keeps by her bed for back-up is not where she thought she'd left it, it seems that Siri's worst fears have been realized.

And when the lifeless body of Sara Matteus, one of her patients, is found floating in the water near Siri's house, events quickly spiral.  It is clear that Siri is in great danger, and she is thrown headlong into the center of a murder investigation which will put each of her closest friends under the spotlight.  With suspense building toward a dramatic conclusion, Siri is forced to relive her troubled past, and finally achieve some kind of peace.

Corrie says:  Very well-written storyline that I couldn't wait to read every night!
