- Knock knock / by Roslund, Anders,1961-author.; Wessel, Elizabeth Clark,translator.; translation of:Roslund, Anders,1961-Jamåhonleva.English.;
Seventeen years ago, Criminal Inspector Ewert Grens was called to the scene of a brutal crime. A family had been murdered, and the only survivor--and witness--was the five-year-old daughter. The girl was placed in the witness protection program, and the case went cold, but years later, Grens is still haunted by the seemingly random slaying, and the little girl who was spared. So when he learns that the apartment where the crime occurred is now the scene of a mysterious break-in, Grens immediately fears that someone is intent on silencing the only witness. He races to find her ... before they do. Meanwhile, someone in the city's criminal underworld is executing weapons smugglers, and has placed former police informant Piet Hoffman's family in grave danger. He must unravel the secret threat to his family, all while keeping secrets of his own. Soon his hunt for answers intertwines with Ewert's, and the two men find themselves in the middle of a criminal conspiracy that is more complicated--and dangerous--than they could have imagined.

- I can do that too : a big hedgehog and little hedgehog adventure / by Teckentrup, Britta.; Stuart, Nicola T.;
""I can do that, too!" tells of children's desire to be able to do everything that adults do. And about the fact that adults often don't know how to deal with this, because on the one hand they don't want to discourage children, but on the other hand they don't want to let them try things they are still too small to do. In this book, Britta Teckentrup shows that children can already do some of the things adults do, but often in a slightly different way, and so in the end the result is something different - and the realization that both can learn from each other. The warm and atmospheric illustrations make it easy for adults to talk to children about their abilities and the process of learning things"--

On a cold day in Reykjavik, a baby goes missing from her pram. When the child's blanket washes up on the beach and the mother is found dead, everyone's worst fears seem to have been realised. Eleven years later and detective Huldar and child psychologist Freyja are now working in the same police building, on the same team. Freyja believes that personal and professional relationships must remain separate, however hard that may be. But when a woman's dismembered body is found in a deserted car, her head missing, and Freyja and Huldar find themselves working on the same case, the secrecy around their affair threatens to crack. And when Freyja is accused of a serious breach of police protocol, will Huldar be able to help her? Meanwhile, their search to identify the body takes the case back into secrets of the past and the unspoken crimes that bind three separate families.

- Lemon / by Kwŏn, Yŏ-sŏn,1965-author.; Hong, Janet,translator.; translation of:Kwŏn, Yŏ-sŏn,1965-Remon.English.;
"In this piercing psychological portrait that takes the shape of a crime novel, a woman haunted by her sister's unsolved murder transforms herself in order to cope with the pain of absence and unknowing. In the summer of 2002, when Korea is abuzz over hosting the FIFA World Cup, nineteen-year-old Kim Hae-on is killed in what becomes known as the High School Beauty Murder. Two suspects quickly emerge: rich kid Shin Jeongjun, whose car Hae-on was last seen in, and delivery boy Han Manu, who witnesses Hae-on in the passenger seat of Jeongjun's car just a few hours before her death. But when Jeongjun's alibi turns out to be solid, and no evidence can be pinned on Manu, the case goes cold. Seventeen years pass without any resolution for those who knew and loved Hae-on, and the grief and uncertainty take a cruel toll on her younger sister, Da-on, in particular. Unable to move on with her life, Da-on tries in her own twisted way to recover some of what she's lost, ultimately setting out to find the truth of what happened. Told at different points in time from the perspectives of Da-on and two of Hae-on's classmates, Lemon loosely follows the structure of a detective novel. But finding the perpetrator is not the main objective here. Instead, the work explores grief and trauma, raising important questions about guilt, retribution, and the meaning of death and life"--
