Nothing lost in translation

I'm currently reading the arc of The Ice Princess by Camilla Lackberg, a Swedish author. Lackberg is huge in Sweden but this is the first time they've translated one of her books into English. It's about a writer who finds herself investigating the death of a childhood friend. Two things drew me to it, one - the cover (yeah I know, covers) Second and most important the publisher decided to use Steig Larsson's translator.

Update 4/21 - the translators are not the same but Ice Princess is still great.
