"A thrilling crime plot with lots of twists and turns...the best Swedish crime export of the year."—Die Welt (Germany)

"Effective, well written and flawless are three pretty precise labels one can put on the Swedish author duo Mikael Hjorth and Hans Rosenfeldt's first crime novel Det fördolda....Hjorth & Rosenfeldt cannot be placed in a classic, Swedish crime tradition. Neither criticism on society, nor women's crime fiction's tiring predilection for everyday trivialities is offered here, instead a solid narrative, where nothing is black or white."—Politiken (DK)

"Despite the gruesome murder, Det fördolda is a crime novel where action and blood-dripping details are left behind for more interesting depictions of the everyday - although complex and infected - relationships between people. The cleverly increasing tension lies in the gradual mapping out of Roger's life and it leaves you with a taste for more."—Skånska Dagbladet (SE)

"The solid story is brought to life by the characters who hopefully will appear again in part two of the Bergman series."—de Volkskrant (NL)

"An exceedingly quick, efficient and continuously action packed crime thriller. They know their craft. They have great command of the staccato rhythm of this curt, brusque language and use it to create drama and continuously increasing tension."—Borås Tidning (SE)

"Effective, well written and flawless."—Politiken (DK)
