The most surprising young adult crime saga in recent years, with paranormal elements and a hilarious protagonist. Erik Vogler is one of those characters the reader loves to hate but ends up loving. He's a clean freak, obsessed with order (he classifies everything by colour) and he has to have everything under control. He dresses in classic designer-retro style with Italian shoes and 'passion' trousers, and of course, he can't stand paper tissues and their lack of elegance. In reality, Erik is a timorous coward who faints at the drop of a hat and always ends up involved in, generally high quality, crimes when he is really trying to stay out of them. Full of amusing incidents and mysteries that draw the reader into reading one book after another.
