I'm Traveling Alone, Bjork - B +

                                                Thanks to Wendell Erwin for this one. It's a fast-paced Norwegian mystery with most of the usual Nordic noir characters. There is a serial killer taunting the police, a religious cult, a police woman so over the edge that she takes this case on in lieu of doing herself in, a worn-out under-appreciated supervisor, a newbie tech magician and the usual boss who makes it harder to solve the case. The killer is very, very good at disguises and technology. She also has a deeply felt personal grudge against one of the key policewoman. The book has a dramatic tension-filled end and is, quite simply, a fun read.
