About
David Hewson's The Killing 3 is the novelization of the third series of the hit Danish crime drama, The Killing.
Detective Inspector for homicide, Sarah Lund, is contacted by old flame Mathias Borch from National Intelligence. Borch fears that what first appeared to be a random killing at the docks is the beginning of an assassination attempt on Prime Minister Troels Hartmann. The murder draws attention towards the shipping and oil giant, Zeeland, run by billionaire Robert Zeuthen.
When Zeuthen's 9-year-old daughter, Emilie, is kidnapped the investigation takes on a different dimension as it soon becomes clear that her disappearance is linked to the murder of a young girl in Jutland some years earlier.
Hartmann is in the middle of an election campaign, made all the more turbulent because of the mounting financial crisis. He needs Zeeland's backing.
Lund needs to make sense of the clues left by Emilie's perpetrator before it's too late.
And can she finally face the demons that have long haunted her? A family in turmoil. A country in crisis. All debts must be settled. As gripping as Søren Sveistrup's TV series, David Hewson's crime thriller The Killing 3 is inspired by the Danish hit The Killing. David Hewson was born in Yorkshire in 1953. He has worked for The Times, Independent and Sunday Times as a journalist, and has written numerous novels, as well as several travel books. David Hewson's European crime and mystery books range from the Copenhagen of The Killing and Sarah Lund to the Italy of Nic Costa and the Amsterdam of Pieter Vos. David lives in Kent.
