Shannon's Pick: The Golden Cage by Camilla Lackberg

If you love dark revenge stories, this one, about a woman who gave it all up for love only to be traded in for a younger model, might be just the thing.

Läckberg has made a career out of writing clever psychological suspense stories about vile people doing vile things. In her novels, the world is not 'hygge' — that trendy Scandinavian term for cozy, featured in the likes of Ikea ads heavy on sheepskin throws and lumpy knit lampshades ... The Golden Cage tells a nasty tale about entrenched male domination in a supposedly enlightened society; great wealth and the soul rot it can breed; and the payback — oh, the sweet, sick payback of a woman used and spurned, rising up from the discard pile.
