Forensic pathologist Lars Pohjanen has only a few weeks to live when he asks Rebecka Martinsson to investigate a murder that has long since passed the statute of limitations. A body found in a freezer at the home of the deceased alcoholic, Henry Pekkari, has been identified as a man who disappeared without a trace in 1962: the father of Swedish Olympic boxing champion Börje Ström. Rebecka wants nothing to do with a fifty-year-old case - she has enough to worry about. But how can she ignore a dying man's wish?
When the post-mortem confirms that Pekkari, too, was murdered, Rebecka has a red-hot investigation on her hands. But what does it have to do with the body kept in his freezer for decades?
Meanwhile, the city of Kiruna is being torn down and moved a few kilometres east, to make way for the mine that has been devouring the city from below. With the city in flux, the tentacles of organized crime are slowly taking over . . .
Rebecka Martinsson is Larsson's fragile but heroic investigator who has to battle internal enmities and her own personal demons in her quest to uncover the truth behind a shocking series of murders.

This was my first reading encounter with the work of ?sa Larsson. I can honestly say that I am very impressed. Taking "The Sins of Our Fathers" into my hands, I did not expect to receive such an extensive plot. Despite 608 pages, I read the book very quickly. The interesting plot and characters kept me reading. "The Sins of Our Fathers" is the sixth and final volume of the unique series starring Rebecka Martinsson. She is facing various problems. Will he fulfil the dying man's last wish and lead the investigation of a time-barred murder? In addition, in the novel I received, among other things, organized crime. If you like Swedish frosty thrillers, I encourage you to read this book. I must know the previous fate of our main character. She is worth knowing.
