Thriller Crime

Two young Roma boys break into an abandoned Soviet hospital looking for something to sell; what they find will send the security forces in two countries into a terrorism investigation. Nina Borg is a Red Cross nurse who is called upon to treat patients in unsafe conditions. Her convictions are that everyone deserves to be treated regardless of their nationality. When she is called upon to treat some Roma families hiding out in an abandoned garage in Copenhagen, she has no idea that she will be putting her family and her life in a perilous situation. Sandor Horvath is a student in international law at a university in Hungary. Trying to fit into the gadji world, he is unprepared when his younger brother steals his passport and his computer to sell what he finds in the hospital Sandor is picked up by the Hungarians. His release is just before his final exam is to take place. He is denied his chance to graduate and sets out to find out what Invisible scheme his brother has caught him up in. An intricately woven story that brings together many threads involving two countries and two different ideologies, INVISIBLE MURDER is a strong statement about the indignities that society inflicts on people who don't fit into their conception of normal. While the story is strong, I found it hard to follow because the authors did a lot of scene hopping; both in time and location. If you like dark mysteries, this will meet your needs. For those who like cozies or light mysteries, this will depress you.

SUMMARY

The second installment in the bestselling Danish crime series starring Red Cross nurse Nina Borg, following Fall 2011's New York Times–bestselling The Boy in the Suitcase
 
In the ruins of an abandoned Soviet military hospital in northern Hungary, two impoverished Roma boys are scavenging for old supplies or weapons they could sell on the black market when they find more than they ever anticipated. The resulting chain of events threatens to blow the lives of a frightening number of people into bits and pieces.
 
In this feverishly anticipated follow-up to 2011’s critically acclaimed The Boy in the Suitcase, Danish Red Cross nurse Nina Borg doesn’t realize she is putting life and family on the line when she tries to treat a group of sick Hungarian gypsies who are living illegally in a Copenhagen garage. Nina has unwittingly thrown herself into a deadly nest of the unscrupulous and the desperate, and what is at stake is much more terrifying than anyone had realized.
