This is the 9th book in the Detective Joona Linna Series, translated from Swedish. I previously read only the 2nd book so I don't know what possessed me to grab this one from Netgalley without reading any of the others in between. Oh, I know - they said it was Read Now for the first 200 members! Anyway, it really wasn't a problem keeping up although it's piqued my interest in reading some of the books in between. Unfortunately I couldn't get it read before the publication date.
In this book the killer, dubbed the Spider due to the horrendous way the victims are killed, is leaving riddles about who's the next victim and where they will be left. Saga Bauer has been informed that she is the only one who can stop the killer and that Joona Linna will be the last victim. Even though this book is close to 500 pages, it reads pretty fast as there's a lot of dialogue so the short snappy chapters (98 of them plus an epilogue!) pass very quickly. Both main characters - Joona Linna and Saga Bauer - engage in some pretty dark pursuits and have even darker backgrounds. Saga has been on leave due to what sounds like PTSD and has not been cleared to return to active duty but that doesn't seem to stop her. The story contains some very violent and brutal incidents and isn't for the faint of heart. As much as I enjoyed the book, I was ready for it to end before it did. Maybe 7 victims instead of 9 would've been enough. Still, it was nerve-wracking right to the end. I'm giving the book 5 stars in spite of a couple of misgivings because it was unputdownable for the most part.
My thanks to Penguin Random House Canada via Netgalley for the opportunity to read an ARC of this novel. All opinions expressed are my own.

The Spider: Joona Linna Series: #9 I liked it a bit better than the previous book The Mirror Man.
The serial killer from the previous books is dead, but somebody else is killing people and sending Saga Bauer clues about the next victim and the place where the murder is going to happen.
As always books are very harsh and full of gruesome details. It is more a horror, noir thriller than a mystery book. But such books also have their place in our reading list and this one is worth reading.
Can be read as standalone, but it is a lot better as a part of the series. The knowledge from previous books helps a lot to understand events and characters.

Be sure to check for my review, first posted on Mystery and Suspense, as well as a number of other insightful comments by other reviewers.

First and foremost, a large thank you to NetGalley, Lars Keplar, Penguin Random House Canada, and McClelland & Stewart for providing me with a copy of this publication, which allows me to provide you with an unbiased review.
Back for another adventure in the Joona Linna series, I turned to the latest book by Lars Kepler. A collaborative effort by two strong Swedish authors, Kepler is able to captivate the reader while also keeping things moving at a break-neck pace. While Linna has been saddled with many tough cases, this one could be the most complex, as members of the police appear to be the target, with gruesome outcomes. While Linna tries to stay one step ahead of the killer, clues point that he could be the next victim, sending the entire team into a tailspin. Racing against the clock, Linna must locate the killer and stop their actions before more die. Kepler keeps the reader flipping pages in this sensational Scandinavian noir thriller!
Three years ago, a postcard arrived at the home of Saga Bauer, who had been doing some work with the National Police Service in Sweden. The text on the back, while somewhat cryptic, carried an ominous tone that nine white bullets were earmarked for members of the police. Saga took notice, but it was the promise that one would be used on Joona Linna, her boss, that made Saga feel the heat. However, as time passed and nothing happened, it all became a distant memory,.
After a body is found, highly decomposed, with a white bullet inside, the memories of that postcard come back to the surface. The victim is soon identified as a member of the National Police and Joona Linna is called in to help find the killer., With a knack for locating some of Sweden’ worst killers, Linna will stop at nothing until the culprit is identified and behind bars. One killing soon leads to more and the game is on!
Odd clues, including tin figurines and a goading message, fuel the search, in which Linna brings Saga Bauer back into the fold. However, as things progress, there are suspicious clues that emerge, leaving some of believe that Saga might be behind the whole thing. Linna wrestles with trying to distance himself, but also has a great deal of trust for his former team member, all while he remains the primary target for this, as yet, unidentified killer.
When the killer is given the moniker ‘The Spider’, Linna tries to lure them out and learns of a horrible incident in the past that could be fuelling the killings. Still, as Saga becomes the primary suspect, there is something within Linna that refuses to believe that his friend and former colleague could be this dark. Still, with no clear path to solving the case, the web gets even more complex and Linna finds himself tangled in the middle of it all. A chilling piece that will have readers wondering as the story progresses, proving Lars Kepler’s superior writing ability.
I discovered the work of Lars Kepler a number of years ago, pulled in by the dark and addictive thrillers that had been written. Now into the ninth book, I cannot get my hands on these novels fast enough. Lars Kepler uses a strong narrative style to keep the reader hooked from the opening pages and never backs down, weaving tales and plots into each chapter. The characters, many of whom emerge for the first time, are strong and keep the reader in the middle of the action, adding depth to an already stellar piece of writing. Joona Linna continues to receive some development, a Finn working in the Swedish police system. Plot twists emerge and develop with ease, which is nothing new for Kepler fans. It is the speed at which things happen that will force the reader to hold on tight in order not to get lost in the lighting speed of developments. Something I have always noticed is that there is such an easy flow to Lars Kepler novels, which is surprising not only because it is a collaborative pair of strong Swedish writers, but also due to the translation factor. There appears to be no jaggedness when it come to reading, nothing jilted or lost in translation. This adds to my enjoyment and I can only hope that others will see that as well. Dark, Scandinavian, and full of surprises. What else could you want in a book?!
Kudos, Lars Kepler, for a stunning ninth novel in the series., I cannot wait to see what you have in the works!

Another banger from Lars Kepler. I love their dark morbid brain. Such smart villains and the main characters are so fleshed out. I never want them to ever stop churning out these dark thrillers.
November 6, 2022
I am probably done with Kepler. This book contains way too much detailed revelry in violence. The plot was predictable, as far as one can even talk about a plot. The book was just a disgusting depiction of sick violence.

Estou doida com este livro!
A verdade é que os autores me conquistam de livro para livro, é notória a evolução da escrita e da história ao longo dos livros que vão sendo publicados.
Neste aqui acompanhamos mais uma vez o inspetor Joona, mas também a Saga (que eu adoro!), num crime que nos remonta também ao inesquecível e assustador Jurek, um dos serial killers mais bem construídos que eu já vi!
Tal como numa teia de aranha neste livro somos enganados, e envolvidos de forma assustadora, apesar de descobrirmos a pessoa responsável pelos crimes relativamente cedo o seu propósito e jogo final só é revelado nas últimas páginas e por isso vamos sendo constantemente enganados.
Este livro é um verdadeiro banho de sangue e termina de uma forma assustadora, deixando-nos apreensivos para o que ai vem…

Once again this book is not for the faint hearted. You have been warned!!!!!
This author is a master of storytelling and for me the best Scandi noir author. This book can be read as a stand alone but I suggest you read the other books in this fantastic series as you get to know the back stories of the main characters. The Spider is a tour de force of this very dark crime thriller. A deadly game of cat and mouse. The killer is leaving riddles about the victim and where they will be left. There will be nine victims and time is running out. The killer has told Saga that she is the only one who can stop them and the last victim will be Joona. Omg what a read, I literally have no nails left. Heart stopping moments a plenty and I devoured this book in one sitting. It got to the point that I would just read one more chapter but it never happened. Finally turning the last page at 3am Yes this book is that good!!!! Chilling, abhorrent and another MUST READ from one of my favourite authors. Loved,loved it!!!!!
Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC.

Įveiktos visos 8 dalys, nors skaičiau tikrai pasitaupydama, nes tikrai buvo įdomu ir nesinorėjo, kad greitai pasibaigtų. 😉 Ši dalis neišimtis tikrai patiko, buvo įdomu, įtraukė, gal kažkiek vietomis paskubėta, ir neišbaigta iki galo, bet čia tik mano tokia nuomonė. Bet kažkodėl nujaučiu, kad sulauksime ir 9 knygos 😉

No, no no.... I used to love the books by the Keplers, but even though they undeniably have a gift when it comes to keep the pace, suspense and write pageturners - hence the 2 stars - this is just a horrible thriller!
It has absurdly detailed violent sex scenes, sickly detailed killings/molestations, a genial serial killer (again), repetitive misunderstandings, repetitive nearly empty batteries in mobile phones - which of course results in more violence and murders, and - why on earth are Linna and Bauer the ONLY persons in the Swedish police force that are thinking and understanding the serial killer? And why is everybody always doubting them until it's more or less too late?
The plot is totally unrealistic, the ending is absurd - and I hope the Keplers soon will get some serious help from their publisher....this is just a huge waste of writing talents!

An uneven entry in a generally good series. The story relies heavily on previous books, so any reader diving in to this one will find themselves somewhat confused. The first half in particular is very disjointed. Thankfully, once the plot settles down, it gets back to what the series does best in the 2nd half, with a high bloody body count and tense action thrills. Enough to keep me interested for the next one!

Når du trodde det ikke var mulig å klemme ut mer saft av sitronen, så kommer det ei ny bok om Jurek. Edderkoppen får tre stjerner kun for spenningen, men jeg hadde egentlig forventet et sterkere plot av Kepler. De mater på med det ene bestialske drapet etter det andre, i tillegg til både overgrep og grafiske sexscener som historien kunne vært foruten. Etter å ha lest boka lurer jeg på om det egentlig var Eddekoppen ofrene ikke unnslapp, eller om det var Kepler.

Börjar att kännas som nionde säsongen av "morden i Midsomer". Både Joona och Saga är intressanta karaktärer men jag tror inte att jag orkar ytterligare en så iskall och superintelligent massmördare i Sverige

Cold and depressing crime story.

⭐️ 2.5 stars ⭐️
The first 200 pages were awesome, very gripping and interesting. I loved Joona, badass super detective, from the start.
I love a good police procedural show, hunting down serial killers, uncovering clues and mysteries, so this read seemed perfect for that.
The killings and the spider analogy were very creative, thrilling and definitely disgusting, but exactly what I expected going into this.
But then.. the story gets a little too weird.
And that’s where it completely lost me.
It took some very weird turns, a lot of the characterizations were so odd and kind of fucked up, I actually started wanting the killer to kill them. Like, ‘yas bitch kill the motherfucker, he deserves it’.
If I find myself getting angry at the characters, screaming DUMBASS at a book, I might not be enjoying it? Right?
I didn’t read the other books in the series (my bad), and I think I might’ve felt more connected, more invested in the characters had I read some of the others. Also, this storyline seems pretty connected with the previous book, both in terms of backstory on the characters and regarding the killers story and motives. So, maybe do as I say not as I do, and read the others before reading this one.
The premise was very intriguing, but I didn’t vibe well with some of the plot points, how the authors decided to go with this story. This is most likely a me problem, so don’t let any of this stop you from reading this crime thriller series.
TW (spoilers):
- Violence
- Gore
- Death
- Sexual harassment
- Depictions of SA & coerced sexual relations

Um livro muito bem conseguido! Como habitual, a dupla Lars Kepler consegue agarrar o leitor do início ao fim, com um ritmo viciante e os crimes mais macabros.
Senti algumas dificuldades neste livro porque me faltam ler alguns livros da série, por isso se querem ler este, leiam os anteriores referentes ao Jurek.
No entanto, nem por isso a leitura foi menos empolgante. Adorei os enigmas, o desenvolvimento dos crimes e nem tanto a investigação. Achei que neste livro a investigação foi pouco desenvolvida.
Já tinha saudades da Saga. Foi bom revê-la e ao Joona. Muito curiosa pelo próximo, esta dupla nunca falha. Enquanto espero, vou ganhar vergonha na cara e ler os que livros deles que estão em falta 😅
É impossível não recomendar um livro daquela que, para mim, é a melhor série policial!

Mano, kone ilgiausią skaitymo bloką nutraukusi, knyga..
Apie mano meilę šiam rašytojų duetui jau kalbėta daug...
Tad su nekantrumu laukiau naujausios jų knygos.
Kaip voras mezga voratinklius, kaip nejučiomis ir aš įsisukau į šių autorių nėrinius..
Viskas prasideda nuo atvirlaiškio Sagai.. ir visi tai pamiršo, kol voro žaidimas neprasidėjo iš naujo..
Ką slepia visos tos mįslės, anogramos, ar įmanoma suspėti laiku?
Nors žudikas atskleidžiamas labai anksti, bet motyvai ir dvejonės išlieka iki pabaigos..
Voras suraizgys ir neleis miegoti.
Rekomenduoju 📚

In The Spider by Lars Kepler, Joona Linna and Saga Bauer are faced with one of their most ruthless and seemingly unstoppable killers yet. When a badly decomposed body is discovered wrapped in a sack filled with a caustic liquid and, worse, it is someone both Joona and Saga know, they realize it’s linked to a threatening post card Saga received three years previous and that the writer is now acting on the threat. As the bodies pile up and despite each murder preceded by a package containing a small figurine and clues to the next victim, it seems the killer is always several steps ahead.
The Spider is the ninth in the Joona Linna series and it is one heart pounding non-stop page turner. It kept me reading into the wee small hours needing to know what came next. Warning though for those who are not familiar with the series - it is also extremely violent and definitely not for the weak of heart or stomach. Overall, one hell of a wild ride.
I received an arc of this book from Netgalley and the publishers in exchange for an honest review

Solid uppföljare till de tidigare böckerna. Vi följer Joona och Saga några år efter den senaste boken då de jobbar tillsammans med ett litet team för att stoppa en seriemördare med 9 mord inplanerade, varav Joona kommer vara den sista.
Boken har som vanligt en snabb takt, spännande och våldsamma mord, action samt lite karaktärsmoment där våra huvudpersoner gör sina misstag och växer. Boken var lättläst och spännande, dock blev det lite upprepat med 9 st mord, vi läste från mordoffrens perspektiv och snart verkade det som om alla skulle dö trots allt. Polisen var alltid sen med att lösa gåtan för morden och de som dödades kändes ibland lite väl inkompententa, vilket ledde till ett upprepande mönster genom bokens gång. Men boken gjorde några saker annorlunda vilket var najs. Önskar dock att boken inte skulle ha känts som att allt upprepades och att andra poliser utöver Saga och Joona vore lite mer kompetenta
