The Murder of Harriet Krohn

Mind. Inspector Konrad Sejer doesn’t appear until more than halfway through the novel by Karin Fossum titled, The Murder of Harriet Krohn. Instead, protagonist and criminal Charlo Torp draws readers into his world and into his mind. By the time we meet his daughter, Julia, we understand how important she is to Charlo, and how he would do anything for her. All the setup narrative about the mental state of Charlo provides the context for Sejer to solve the case. Readers who like psychological novels will be delighted by this one. Those readers of the series who expect a more traditional crime procedural may be surprised by this installment.
