The
sequel to the praised
book 'Gömda' by Liza Marklund continues with Maria Svensson returning to Sweden with her family. After trying toescape her ex-husbands harassment, threats and murder attempts she came back, but the story's far from over. Marias ex-husband don't stop and the
authorities can't, or won't, help. They recommend the only option left for Maria. To immigrate. For good. First stop is South America where her children start school and Maria begins working.The future looks bright but there's still one dark spot on her mind. They are not legal citizens. And there is always the chance that He will find them. So they move again. To America, her only refugium if she can manage to get a Visa. If.This is a review I wish I wouldn't have been able to do. That Maria andher
family hadn't had to go through more pain, fear and suffering. That the swedish government didn't act like high-paid, lumpish morons.If only Maria had gotten a happy ending already in book one. But it's astory that is true and has to be told. And no person could do it bettert than Liza Marklund, who understands that simple words can hurt morethan long, diluting explenations. I want to
help and make everything better. But most of all I want to scream. Scream at unsympathetic authorities and dysfunctional laws that doesn't work when you actually need them. That people like him is allowed to walk freely and make a mockery of our judicial system. 'Asyl' is a strong, touching sequel that refuse to be a passive portrayal of an abused woman.
