Murder in the Family: The Double Killing of Mother and Father

'Murder in the Family: The Double Killing of Mother and Father' is a true crime book by Danish authors Miki Mistrati and Robert Zola Christensen about a case from 2016, when a married couple were brutally killed in their own home in East Jutland, a region of mainland Denmark. The authors have gone through the case in detail and describe the dramatic events that shook the local community.

The case drew extensive media attention, because the perpetrator's relationship to the victims added another layer of tragedy to an already appalling crime. The book covers the police investigation, the court proceedings and the human stories behind the headlines.

Mistrati, known for his investigative documentaries, has worked with crime reporter Robert Zola Christensen to build a detailed portrait of a case that raises questions about family ties, psychology and what can drive a person to the most extreme act.

Drawing on interviews and thorough research, the two authors take the reader through the complex layers of a modern Danish murder mystery — one that left a community in shock and a family in grief.
