Why read it?

1 author picked The Girl Who Wouldn't Die as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Marnie Riches’ characters never let you go, they’re so real and three-dimensional, and the stories grip from start to finish. For me, I questioned the need to link these books through the titles and artwork with Steig Larsson's books.

If anything, it put me off them, but I tried this one anyway and was instantly hooked. Now, having read both series, I have to say I much prefer these. Instead of rehashing Van der Valk, they should have made these books into a TV series.
