Scandinavian noir, not too hard core.
Very good…enjoyed reading….
Not a big fan. The book had flashbacks, but there was no rhyme or reason to throwing them in. Just strange to read…
It is a predictable and poorly written story.
Loved this book!
Poorly written. Uninteresting characters
I loved this book! Riveting until the very end.
Interesting sub plots.
Sample of Nordic Writers’ great talent for great mysteries
This is one great book and I can hardly wait for more of her books to be translated into English!
a well written book with an excellent plot, and believable chrachters
Good read
I really enjoyed the characters and storyline. Kept me engaged to the last page.
I liked this book! U think u have it figured out, but no u don’t, I did this several times ’till I finally figured it out–or at least I thought I did. Sad about the little boy, and there is another surprise too. Read it 4 urself.
Not going to raise your IQ, but a good mystery with a healthy dose of creepy unsub. Fun to read. Engaging characters- I’d read a sequel.
Great read!
If you like Willow Rose books this is a lot like them
A little jerky in the telling…agonist Like it wasn’t translated well.
It was good keep you guesses
I can’t get into it or finish it
