Ik Reis Alleen is het razend spannende thrillerdebuut van de Noorse schrijver Samuel Bjørk, over inspecteur Holger Munch en zijn collega Mia Krüger.

Op het Noorse platteland wordt een zesjarig meisje gevonden, met een springtouw opgeknoopt aan een boom. Ze draagt vreemde poppenkleren en er hangt een vliegtuiglabel om haar nek met de tekst "Ik reis alleen".
Na een intern onderzoek werd inspecteur Holger Munchs speciale onderzoeksteam opgeheven en werd hij overgeplaatst naar een regionaal politiebureau. Maar als het land wordt geteisterd door een sluwe moordenaar, wordt het team weer tot leven gewekt. Munchs prioriteit is om zijn beste onderzoeker, de extreem getalenteerde maar depressieve Mia Krüger, uit haar zelfgekozen isolement te halen. Dat is echter nog niet zo makkelijk

Eerste boek van deze auteur, erg fijne schrijfstijl. Verrassend boek.

Mihai Nueleanu

Nice and easy read. A good thriller with good character-building, and an unpredictable storyline (which is important for the genre, of course). The author crafts a relatable and convincing core-motif revolving around the main character's "redemption"
