Book Review: I'm Travelling Alone by Samuel Bjork , a cracking debut novel! release date 15th December 2015

I'm Travelling Alone by Samuel Bjork is a fantastic debut novel by a rising star of Nordic Noir!  This is worthy of a veteran writer.  The plot is complex and satisfyingly thrilling, the characters intriguing, likeable and quirky and the settings are beautifully Nordic.... Samuel Bjork is definitely one to look out for
 in the future.


Mia Kruger and Holger Munch are up against their most sinister killer ever... and it's personal!  The killer hangs the six year old girls from a tree with the sign 'I'm travelling alone' round their necks and a bible verse on their clothes.  Cryptic clues and messages to Munch show that the fifth girl to be targetted by the killer is Munch's grand daughter. Alongside this is the mystery of the sinister Church in the woods and the mysterious woman with two different coloured eyes.  I'm Travelling Alone has been flawlessly translated from the
Norwegian and as a debut novel is brilliantly executed.  it is gripping and challenging and downright exciting.  The dynamics between Munch and Kruger are compelling and the exploration of human emotion through fiction is beautifully done.  Kruger's angst is palpably visceral, Munch's anxiety knife edge and the entire story brooding and unpredictable
