The Godfather for the 21st century. The Andalucian Friend is a major international thriller about an intricate crime web that engulfs all who are caught up in it.

When Sophie Brinkmann meets Hector Guzman, she knows everything that she needs to: he’s handsome, he’s charming and he makes her happy.

But what she doesn’t know is that Hector has some nasty friends, some even nastier enemies, and an unscrupulous police operation relentlessly following his every move.

With her house under surveillance by the law and her life under threat from drug traffickers, gangsters and hitmen, Sophie must decide who she can trust – and whose side she really wants to be on.

Praise for The Andalucian Friend

Imagine The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo meets The Sopranos, then crank up the intrigue and rip off the knob. Alexander Söderberg has penned an awesome thriller you won't want to miss

Brad Thor, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Black List

Widescreen, bone-crunching crime fiction

Siobhan Murphy, Metro

The Scandi movement towards literary world domination gathers apace with the first in a trilogy from Swedish scriptwriter Alexander Söderberg…it already feels tailor made for TV

Claire Allfree, Metro

One of the many wonderful things about Alexander Söderberg's novel, The Andalucian Friend, is how it upsets our expectations. His cops act like gangsters, while his gangsters (some of them) attain a startling sort of nobility. Söderberg has created an entertaining, engaging, and wonderfully bloody-minded world. He’s a great storyteller. It’s that simple

Scott Smith, author of The Ruins

An unpredictable and breathlessly suspenseful, taut and well-written thriller... A timeless saga about the struggle between good and evil... Utterly brilliant

Västerbottens-Kuriren (Sweden)

I haven't read such a captivating, relentlessly suspenseful thriller as The Andalucian Friend in ages

Dalarnas Tidningar (Sweden)

A gripping thriller

Wales on Sunday

Will be devoured by those who like their books like blockbuster movies – packed full of car-chases and underground drug dens
