Synopsis

Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Cinderella Girl by
Carin Gerhardsen. Read by the actress Candida Gubbins.

Three-year-old Hanna wakes up to find she has been abandoned. Her family is gone. The house is locked. She is trapped.

Meanwhile, a teenage girl has been found murdered aboard the Cinderella, a cruise ship which sails between Sweden and Finland.

Detective Chief Inspector Conny Sjöberg visits the girl's home to deliver the tragic news. But as he investigates, it becomes chillingly clear that the girl's younger sister will meet a similar fate - unless the police can crack the case and trap this elusive and vicious killer.

And all the while, somewhere in Stockholm, a little girl waits to be found and rescued...

Cinderella Girl is the nail-biting second book in the critically acclaimed Hammarby Series. Fans of Jo Nesbo, Camilla Lackberg and Henning Mankell will be gripped by Gerhardsen's characters and stories.

My View: Confronting on so many levels! Gerhardsen has a way of introducing social issues into a crime novel in a manner that screams for attention yet does not reek of a lecture or a lesson on how things should be; the issues are cannily woven into the plot and add a somewhat sinister depth to the na......more

Peter James says it on the cover of Cinderella Girl, "Gerhardsen's writing grips your heart and soul in an ever-tightening tourniquet." And what a ride it is you never want to stop reading because it's a story without an ending.......more

Goodreads review by Elina on January 22, 2024

Vaikka tämäkin sarjan osa on oikein kelvollinen dekkari, niin jostain syystä ei oikein lähde edelleenkään niin sanotusti täysillä. Alku on aika jäykähköä kirjoittamista, riippuuko sitten kääntäjästä vai onko alkuperäinen teksti yhtä jäykkää, mutta joka tapauksessa ei ole niin sujuvaa kuin uskoisi. A......more
