Description
International best seller Samuel Bjork makes his US debut with a chilling and fast-paced thriller in which two detectives must hunt down a vengeful killer - and uncover the secret that ties each of them to the crime.
A six-year-old girl is found in the Norwegian countryside, hanging lifeless from a tree and dressed in strange doll's clothes. Around her neck is a sign that says, "I'm traveling alone."
A special homicide unit in Oslo reopens with veteran police investigator Holger Munch at the helm. Holger's first step is to persuade the brilliant but haunted investigator Mia Krüger, who has been living on an isolated island, overcome by memories of her past. When Mia views a photograph of the crime scene and spots the number one carved into the dead girl's fingernail, she knows this is only the beginning. Could this killer have something to do with a missing child abducted six years ago and never found or with the reclusive religious community hidden in the nearby woods?
Mia returns to duty to track down a revenge-driven and ruthlessly intelligent killer. But when Munch's own six-year-old granddaughter goes missing, Mia realizes that the killer's sinister game is personal, and I'm Traveling Alone races to an explosive - and shocking - conclusion.

great
Exactly up my alley. This was my second listen (first was in 2017?) and I really, really liked it. I wish the third book was available in audio format, because the first two were such perfect work listens, but I'm totally going to seek out a physical copy.
I usually hate the hardened detective with a tragic past trope, but I liked Mia. Why? Because she wasn't a bad cop. She worked hard, ethically, and did her job well. And without being a crotchety or sanctimonious, even though she also embodied the wunderkindcop trope... And Munch, despite epitomizing the "worn out divorced cop who destroyed his own family life by being an absentee workaholic whose kid(s) haven't quite forgiven" trope, is actually pretty great. He's a solid, well-rounded character. His family, too.
The secondary characters, particularly those related to the "church" investigation were very compelling. The last scene in the bunker was just *mwah!* so satisfying.
The main storyline was quite good, as well, with a few nice red herrings and a bit of a twist that incorporated other seemingly unrelated events in a believable way.
I just really liked this one.
