As summer comes to an end, the residents of Stockholm notice that their city has changed. At the highest point of the city, the pure white statue of Zeus looks down at them from his throne – a replica of one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
For twenty-four hours, many believe that their city has been honored with an impressive, anonymous work of art. Then reality comes crashing down on them. With all its might.
Led by Eva Nyman, the experienced NOVA team takes on the task of discovering the origin of the statue, who put it there and why. Soon, more inexplicable events will follow, all connected to the Seven Wonders of the ancient world.
The multi-award-winning Arne Dahl delivers a story about revenge, past mistakes and obsession.
PRESS REVIEWS
A high-caliber crime thriller.
Lippische Landes-Zeitung
Dahl keeps his characters, as well as his readers, in the dark for a long time. Each clue seems to promise a lot, only to end in a dead end. The solution is truly astonishing.
Kolnische Rundschau
Arne Dahl has been a guarantor of suspense for many years. He proves it once again.
Neue Rhein Zeitung
The Seven Wonders is the best crime novel to come out of Sweden, from an author who shows great imagination. His books rightfully always appear on bestseller lists.
Ruhr Nachrichten
Arne Dahl is perhaps the smartest contemporary Scandinavian crime writer. He also happens to be one of the most exciting.
