A very enjoyable book - written in an Anglo Saxon style this book has the feel of a translated book although it is written by homegrown Swiss author. It is essentially a whodunit that is easy to read and has a fun plot that keeps you guessing. I strongly recommend to anyone who wants to read in French but who is often put off by the French literary style. Anyone expecting high literature or deep philosophical thought (as they might well do, given the number of awards this book has received) will be disappointed. This is a good holiday read. Off to see if M. Dicker has written anything else now!

Muito bom. Lembra um pouco O nome da rosa. No aspecto da devoção ao conhecimento e a literatura.
Contrived but the plot kept me entertained. Minus points for the racist caricature of Mrs Goldman.
Harry Q. Davasının Ardındaki Gerçek, Can Yayınları. Çok başarılı bir polisiye.
