Denmark’s #1 crime writer introduces America to Department Q Many Scandinavian crime writers have been hailed as the new Stieg Larsson, but few have what it really takes to captivate American audiences. Dark, propulsive, and riveting, Jussi Adler-Olsen’s Department Q series sells 1 million copies every year in Denmark alone, and—like Larsson and Henning Mankell—he’s won the prestigious Glass Key Award. Now, The Keeper of Lost Causes shows American readers what they’ve been missing. Carl Mørck used to be one of Copenhagen’s best detectives—until a bullet lands him in the basement with only a stack of cold cases for company. His colleagues snicker, but Carl may have the last laugh, because one file keeps nagging at him: a liberal politician who vanished five years earlier, now presumed dead. But she isn’t dead . . . yet. “Far from being just another morose Nordic crime writer, Adler-Olsen creates a detective whose curiosity is as active as his soul is tortured.” —Library Journal (starred review) “The pages fly by as the twisty puzzle unfolds. Stieg Larsson fans will be delighted.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “Adler-Olsen’s prose is superior to Larsson’s, his tortures are less discomfiting, and he has a sense of humor.” —Booklist (starred review) “The new ‘it’ boy of Nordic Noir.” —The Times (London) “The Keeper of Lost Causes is dark, atmospheric, and compelling. Those who loved The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo will devour this book.” —C. J. Box, New York Times bestselling author of Cold Wind She was going to look after herself. For them she was the woman in the cage, but she was the one who decided how far apart the bars would be. She would think thoughts that opened out onto the world and kept madness at bay. They would never break her. That’s what she decided as she lay there on the floor, her shoulder throbbing fiercely and the swelling around her eye forcing it closed. Someday she would get out of here. suGGesteD oRDeR a u G u s t • P l u m e 41 PLUME
