Jana - Marked For Life
When a high-ranking official at the Swedish Migration Agency is murdered, the list of suspects is long. Assistant Prosecutor Jana Berzelius joins the investigation, but a shocking discovery at a boy’s autopsy changes everything, he bears the same scar as she does. The markings carved into his skin trigger buried memories of her own dark and violent past.
Brilliant yet emotionally cold, just like her prosecutor father, Jana realizes the key to uncovering the killer is also the key to unlocking her own hidden origins. As more sinister memories resurface, she must track down the murderer, before the police do.
Based on Emelie Schepp’s award-winning crime novels, sold in over 3 million copies across 30 countries.
