Sukulainen
INTRODUCTION
A night shift nurse is killed in a psychiatric care facility on the outskirts of Stockholm. The same night, a young patient escapes from the closed ward. The case is also being investigated by Harriet Jaatinen, a 31-year-old criminal detective with a Finnish background who is on sick leave from her work for the Stockholm police. Someone seems to want Harriet to investigate the crime - but why? Perhaps an answer is found from Harriet's past and the silenced truths of the family that remained in Finland?
The relative is an intense thriller where the secrets of a family that have accumulated over the decades are finally beginning to unfold. It tells of distorted family relationships across borders and people blinded by power.
