Irish Independent describes her as a \"terrific character,\" while Literary Review calls her a \"brilliant character.\" Susi Holliday praises her as a \"memorable protagonist,\" Imran Mahmood describes her as a \"scalpel-sharp character,\" and Jens Lapidus praises her as a \"woman is found wandering the corridors of Nobel Hospital in Stockholm, accompanied by a young boy.\" A woman is found wandering the corridors of Nobel Hospital in Stockholm, accompanied by a young boy. She appears to be looking for a man who was involved in a car accident earlier that day. Meanwhile, in one of the emergency rooms, Tekla Berg is fighting to save a patient who was seriously injured in the same incident. The resulting chaos goes beyond anything anyone could have predicted, leaving hospital staff, police, and everyone else involved equally shocked and perplexed. Hospital Director Monica Carlsson has stepped up her attempts to privatize her fiefdom with the launch of an exclusive patient hotel, a controversial liver transplant unit, and the prestigious recruitment of star surgeon Klas Nyström. It soon becomes obvious that Klas has his own agenda and is working to undermine Tekla at every turn. But Tekla is too distracted to meet this challenge head-on: she has become obsessed with the mystery surrounding the woman and her young charge - for the boy's identity remains unknown, and no trace of his past can be found. Reviews for Hell and High Water describe it as a \"gripping crime novel.\" Fast-moving and packed with convincing detail and memorable characters, according to Literary Review. An authentic and seriously exciting debut, according to the Irish Independent.
