What The Critics Said
'Eriksson's objectivity in his depiction of his characters, criminals, victims, and police alike, makes THE PRINCESS OF BURUNDI a deeply thoughtful piece of crime fiction. It's not a "wild ride" suspense thriller...it is the very interactions of the characters themselves, whether trivial or meaningful, that form the triggers for events within the book... If you are a Henning Mankell fan looking to find another crime writer to read - then let me recommend THE PRINCESS OF BURUNDI as a good book and a good place to start.'
‘Stunning…haunting…can chill you to the bone’Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times
'Kjell Eriksson’s crime novels are among the very best'Henning Mankell, author of the Wallander series
