The Other Son is the second book in an exciting crime trilogy by Alexander Soderberg. The first book, The Andalucian Friend introduced us to the main character.Sophie Brinkmann, who is a nurse in a Stockholm hospital. Hector Guzman, a Spanish criminal kingpin falls in love with Sophie while recovering from a hit by a rival crime syndicate,
The Other Son takes place after the events of the first novel. The characters are pretty much the same. Sophie is already part of the Guzman crime family. She is now heavily involved in its business dealings. This is a great novel that has all the elements of a great suspense read, such as loyalty and betrayal. Also, while action packed, the story still has great character development. We see the relationship between Sophie and her son as well as Hector Guzman.
I strongly recommend you read the first novel, The Andalucian Friend as it is difficult to grasp the full picture if you just read The Other Son. All in all, it's a great read and I highly recommend it.
