Eventuellt uppsåt - att döda ortens gangsters by Jan Guillou

Posted

"Eventuellt uppsåt - att döda ortens gangsters" - freely translated as "Possible intent - to kill off the local baddies".

This is another amazing book by Jan Guillou!!!

It would be amazing if this really is part of a new series - bring on more Ponti and Hamilton, and Tanguy for that matter! 

“The older I get, the better I was” 😂

I always enjoy reading Guillou's books - the story line is tight, unexpected and his language extremely rich - perfect to keep my Swedish alive, whilst at the same time getting reminded of events that has taken place in Sweden. 


Keep writing - don't feed the pigeons!!


I wish someone would translate all of the Hamilton series, so non Swedish speakers could enjoy these fantastic stories and realise who heavily inspired the more recent Swedish crime writers.

Captivated by Callie by Jennifer Bishop is the first book in the Flamingo Cove series.  Devon Steel, as retired military returns to Flamingo Cove to start his new boating business.  Callie Hargraves is on the run and hopes that Flamingo Cove will be a safe place to hide out. Things don't always go to plan and they soon realise that there is some attraction that is hard to resist between them. Unfortunately Callie's past is catching up with her, and Devon ends up having to help her stay safe.  Easy read, a bit of romance, a few smiles, feel good and enjoyable.  #CaptivatedbyCallie #NetGalley

Den som dödade helvetets änglar by Jan Guillou

"Den som dödade helvetets änglar by Jan Guillou" - freely translated as " The one who killed the angels in hell". A bit late to reading this, but what a treat!!!  His language is beautiful, the connections to true events and living people are spot on, and the criticism of governments thought-provoking and necessary in a democratic-ish society.  Written in a completely different style to his other Hamilton and Ponti books i loved this one! I’ve already got the next one downloaded and will hopefully be in for another treat.  This book is so far only available in Swedish - unfortunately similar to most of Guillou's fabulous books!
