The Keeper of Lost Causes

Our group met last night to discuss The Keeper of Lost Causes, the first book in the Department Q series by Jussi Adler-Olsen, and it was basically a lovefest.   This book is a great choice for a book club as it has everything -- well-developed and interesting characters, fast-moving plot, suspense, crisp dialogue and subtle humor.  We rated it a 4.7 on a scale of 5.  Highly recommended.

The Absent One, book 2 in the series, is due to be released in the United States in August, 2012.

Movie rights have been sold and a 4-film series is planned with filming due to start in October.
