I'm Travelling Alone

A Hunt for a Hidden Predator

I’m Travelling Alone by Samuel Bjørk (2016, Corgi) plunges readers into a chilling investigation when three strangers are found dead in separate, perfectly synchronized murders. Detective Inspector Holger Munch and forensic psychologist Mia Krüger are drawn together by the eerie precision of the killings: each victim appears to have been selected at random, yet their simultaneous deaths send shockwaves through Oslo’s tight-knit community. Bjørk’s taut prose and meticulous attention to procedural detail create a relentless atmosphere of dread, where every clue could be the key or a devastating misdirection.

Dark Secrets and Personal Reckonings

As Munch and Krüger race against time to unmask a killer with nothing to lose, they confront their own haunted pasts. Munch wrestles with the guilt of a case gone wrong, while Krüger’s personal demons threaten to cloud her judgment. Their uneasy alliance becomes the story’s beating heart, illustrating how trust is forged amid chaos. Through winding alleys and snow-dusty streets, Bjørk unveils a tapestry of motives—betrayal, vengeance and the desperate cry for justice.

Gripping and unflinching, I’m Travelling Alone is a masterful thriller that refuses to relent. It lingers long after the final revelation, reminding readers that evil can strike in the most ordinary moments—and that heroes sometimes travel their darkest roads alone.
