Leif Davidsen writes with an eye for detail. 
He is one of the best Danish thriller writers. This very authentic and suspenseful novel begins when a seemingly invincible NATO fighter plane is shot down during a bombing raid in Yugoslavia. It soon becomes clear that there is a leak within the military alliance.
In Bratislava, Teddy Pedersen, a visiting Danish university lecturer, receives a visit from an Eastern European woman who reveals herself to be his half-sister and informs him that their father was a Danish SS officer who had officially been declared dead in 1952 but had in fact lived on in Yugoslavia for many years. When Teddy’s older sister is arrested in Copenhagen on suspicion of being a Stasi agent, a murder leads him — and the Danish intelligence service, with Per Toftlund in charge — to investigate the relationship between these two women, one in Denmark and one in Bratislava.
As international tensions mount, the link Teddy discovers proves to have far-reaching personal and political consequences is this engaging and intricate thriller.
This is a large-scale suspense-filled thriller. To my mind the best so far from Davidsen! The Woman from Bratislava is very enjoyable!
