A madcap new novel from the one-of-a-kind author of The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who
Climbed Out of the Window and The Girl Who Saved the King of Sweden IT'S NEVER
TOO LATE TO START AGAIN. AND AGAIN. It's always awkward when five thousand krono
r goes missing.
When it happens at a certain grotty hotel in south Stockholm,
it's particularly awkward because the money belongs to the hitman currently sta
ying in room seven. Per Persson, the hotel receptionist, just wants to mind his
own business, and preferably not get murdered. Johanna Kjellander, temporarily r
esident in room eight, is a priest without a vocation, and, as of last week, wit
hout a parish.
