Praise for The Shadow Lily

“Johanna Mo’s new novel, The Shadow Lily, is a solid police procedural that brims with twists, turns and surprising revelations.” — Sarah Weinman, The New York Times Book Review

“The Shadow Lily is a perfect crime novel for rainy days, one of those books that does well together with a cup of tea, a blanket and lazy days in the summer house.” —Berlingske

“With an eye for the banalities of everyday life and what great changes and horrible events can do to people, Mo managed to capture something new and authentic… splendidly done.” —Stavanger Aftenblad

“Johanna Mo has yet again given us a well-written crime novel, with strong characters and a splendid portrayal of life on the island.” —Tine Sundal, blog

“Mo employs alternating perspectives to great effect, using them to deepen the reader’s understanding of the events and the characters involved.” —BookPage

“Elegant, gripping, and intricate, The Shadow Lily is a mystery the way P.D. James wrote mysteries: with depth and real humanity. I loved spending time with Detective Hanna Duncker on an island off the coast of Sweden—Oland is as chilling and atmospheric as Ann Cleeves’s Shetland.” —Flynn Berry, author of the New York Times Bestseller Northern Spy

“…this beautifully written story about a small-town detective who becomes entangled in the mystery that trapped her father for over a decade drew me in with its authentic voice… If you love Tana French, then “The Shadow Lily” is for you.” –Alice Blanchard, award-winning author of Trace of Evil
