The Gingerbread House by Carin Gerhardsen is a work of fiction available to read on EtoBox.

What is The Gingerbread House about?

The first in Gerhardsen's Hammarby series of crime novels that take place in the southern parts of Stockholm. The issue of schoolyard bullying among young children and the effect it has on them when people look the other way lends itself to the premise and various scenes of this story, which is based on some of Gerhardsen’s own childhood experiences. In a short space of time, several beastly murders occur in central Sweden. When criminal investigator Conny Sjöbergt and the Hammarby police begin to discover that there’s a link between the murders, Sjöbergt goes completely cold. There is a killer out there whose motives appear to be very personal, and who will not be deterred by anyone. Often compared to the popular Swedish writing team of police procedurals, Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö, and known for thrillers with taut, suspenseful plots and unexpected twist and turns, Gerhardsen’s novels linger in the reader’s mind long after the finish!
