The Louise Rick series by Sara Blaedel follows a Copenhagen detective inspector through investigations that blend police procedural plotting with personal drama. The series started in Denmark in 2005 and was later translated into English, with some books released under different titles for the US market.
Rick is a capable investigator whose cases often involve missing persons, unidentified bodies, and crimes connected to Denmark’s social welfare system. Her partnership with journalist Camilla Lind adds a second perspective to each story.
