“Still Life…does something I’ve never seen before. Each tale is about ordinary people whose lives are upended by crime, and each embodies a different part of the Swedish criminal code. All 10 of the stories…are gems.” —Sarah Weinman, New York Times Book Review, The Month’s Best New Mystery Novels
“Gripping…Gut-wrenching…Exceptionally well-written and thoughtfully composed, this collection wields compassion, empathy, and justice’s inherent conflicts to confront readers with the criminal motives in everyday life.” —Booklist
Praise for Quicksand:
“This is the evolution of Scandinavian crime, in more ways than one.” —Fredrik Backman, author of A Man Called Ove
“A remarkable new novel…Giolito…writes with exceptional skill…[Quicksand is] always smart and engrossing…Giolito keeps us guessing a long time and the outcome, when it arrives, is just as it should be.” —Washington Post
