Praise for The Purity of Vengeance "[A] sordid tale… inspired by actual events during a dark period of Danish history. Ah, but there more, so much more in this frenzied thriller…" - The New York Times Book Review " The Purity of Vengeance is an enjoyable and eye-opening way to learn about the real Scandinavia, a story so outrageous that not even the best mystery writer can make it up." - The Boston Globe "When your series relies on cold cases, it's not always easy to craft plots that have both historical interest and an air of urgency, but it's something Adler-Olsen is very good at." - Booklist "Adler-Olsen merges story lines...with ingenious aplomb, effortlessly mixing hilarities with horrors...This crime fiction tour de force could only have been devised by an author who can even turn stomach flu into a belly laugh." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Another accomplished exercise in three-decker suspense" - Kirkus Reviews "Surprises, twists and turns galore" - Bookreporter.com, "This series has enough twists to captivate contemporary mystery readers and enough substance and background to entertain readers with historical and literary tastes." - Library Journal (starred review) on A Conspiracy of Faith "From the busy efforts of forensics to some riveting train-and-car chasing near the end, there is no lack of action in A Conspiracy of Faith ." - Houston Chronicle "A shattering parable of honest individuals caught up in the corruption of our times." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) on A Conspiracy of Faith "Comparisons [to Stieg Larsson] are inevitable and, while he may lack a Salander, Adler-Olsen's prose is superior to Larsson's, his tortures are less discomfiting, and he has a sense of humor." - Booklist (starred review) on The Keeper of Lost Causes "Adler-Olsen, Denmark's leading crime fiction author, outdoes his outstanding debut, The Keeper of Lost Causes , with his second Department Q novel." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) on The Absent One, Praise for The Purity of Vengeance "When your series relies on cold cases, it's not always easy to craft plots that have both historical interest and an air of urgency, but it's something Adler-Olsen is very good at." - Booklist "Adler-Olsen merges story lines...with ingenious aplomb, effortlessly mixing hilarities with horrors...This crime fiction tour de force could only have been devised by an author who can even turn stomach flu into a belly laugh." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Another accomplished exercise in three-decker suspense" - Kirkus Reviews, Praise for The Purity of Vengeance " The Purity of Vengeance is an enjoyable and eye-opening way to learn about the real Scandinavia, a story so outrageous that not even the best mystery writer can make it up." - The Boston Globe "When your series relies on cold cases, it's not always easy to craft plots that have both historical interest and an air of urgency, but it's something Adler-Olsen is very good at." - Booklist "Adler-Olsen merges story lines...with ingenious aplomb, effortlessly mixing hilarities with horrors...This crime fiction tour de force could only have been devised by an author who can even turn stomach flu into a belly laugh." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Another accomplished exercise in three-decker suspense" - Kirkus Reviews "Surprises, twists and turns galore" - Bookreporter.com , Praise for The Purity of Vengeance "When your series relies on cold cases, it's not always easy to craft plots that have both historical interest and an air of urgency, but it's something Adler-Olsen is very good at." - Booklist "Adler-Olsen merges story lines...with ingenious aplomb, effortlessly mixing hilarities with horrors...This crime fiction tour de force could only have been devised by an author who can even turn stomach flu into a belly laugh." - Publishers Weekly (starred review), Praise for The Purity of Vengeance "[A] sordid tale… inspired by actual events during a dark period of Danish history.

Stieg Larsson fans will be delighted." - Publishers Weekly ( starred review) "[An] absorbing psychological thriller." - Library Journal (starred review) "Comparisons [to Stieg Larsson] are inevitable and, while he may lack a Salander, Adler-Olsen's prose is superior to Larsson's, his tortures are less discomfiting, and he has a sense of humor."- Booklist (starred review) "Plan on putting everything else in your life on hold if you pick up this book." - The Oregonian

Synopsis
Jussi Adler-Olsen's Department Q series, with more than fourteen million copies sold worldwide, continues with the most chilling cold case yet. In 1987, Nete Hermansen plans revenge on those who abused her in her youth, including Curt Wad, a charismatic surgeon who was part of a movement to sterilize wayward girls in 1950s Denmark. More than twenty years later, Detective Carl Mørck already has plenty on his mind when he is presented with the case of a brothel owner, a woman named Rita, who went missing in the eighties: New evidence has emerged in the case that destroyed the lives of his two partners-the case that sent Carl to Department Q. But when Carl's assistants, Assad and Rose, learn that numerous other people disappeared around the same weekend as Rita, Carl takes notice. As they sift through the disappearances, they get closer and closer to Curt Wad, who is more determined than ever to see the vision of his youth take hold and whose brutal treatment of Nete and others like her is only one small part of his capacity for evil. , Jussi Adler-Olsen s Department Q series, with more than fourteen million copies sold worldwide, continues with the most chilling cold case yet.
