Almost gave up as this book is so different from the usual fare from Hakan Nesser. The buildup took a bit too long - 150 pages into the book and the murder has still not happened! But 200 pages in and the book started to feel like a detective novel. You'll need to be a Hakan Nesser fan to have the patience to stay with him through the entire book and be able to appreciate what he's doing.

Me ha parecido todo bastante incoherente, la verdad...

An unusual detective story. I love bow the characters are introduced, and the slight darkness that lingers under the families surface. The plot doesn't follow the conventional crime solving plots, no superhero inspector, no black and white characters, everybody has more shades.
