A man is found murdered at Vallarna in the idyllic town of Falkenberg, and Detective Inspector Kajsa Rudolfsson and her colleagues from the Falkenberg police have barely launched their investigation when a second body turns up. This time it's a woman, discovered on the beach in the normally peaceful fishing village of Glommen. While the two deaths initially appear unrelated, Kajsa soon realizes that the deeper she digs, the more connections begin to surface.

Gradually, the past catches up with those who tried to bury it, and before long, even Kajsa's friend finds herself in danger.

Bitterly Betrayed is the first book featuring Kajsa and her team, launching the Falkenberg Murders series.
