But tragedy casts its dark shadow over the city when a young woman is found brutally beaten in Lund City Park. Not far from the crime scene, a young man is also found assaulted. Both victims are discovered holding a white lilac in their hand. Chief Inspector Sara Vallén is put on the case but is quickly removed when her son turns out to be the main suspect. To clear her son’s name, Vallén decides to start her own investigation. White Lilac is the first in the series about Sara Vallén and her colleagues at the Lund Police Department. Perfect for fans of Jo Nesbo, Karin Fossum, and Lotte Petri.
