Book Review of The Boy in the Suitcase: A Nina Borg Mystery

The Boy in the Suitcase: A Nina Borg Mystery
reviewed on + 15 more book reviews


The Boy in the Suitcase is a compelling story, and is especially illuminating about the area of and challenges in northwestern Europe. Nina Borg is a many-layered character, about whom I'd like to know more. The boy (from the suitcase) and his mother Sigita reveal the many social obstacles some women and children from the area face. The narrator's voice is too strident for my comfort, but the story was intriguing enough that I listened to the entire book, regardless.
