review 1: Took a while to get into this but then rather enjoyed it. Liked the character interplay between the detectives and particularly between that of the protagonist and his mentor (the last few pages were brilliant in terms of how carefully the authoress observed the interplay of personalities). My only bone to pick was that I didn't quite get how the murderer chose the victims. It was made clear in the story that there were no leads for the police to investigate so I found it rather perplexing as to how the murderer magicked their names from thin air. Don't want to say more otherwise I would spoil it!
review 2: Not a bad debut at all for yet another Scandic mystery novelist. My main gripe was that the story took too long to pick up, and many a reader may have given... more up before the good stuff really got underway, probably the last 1/2 or 1/3 of the book. I almost contemplated giving up too, but was going through a busy period and hence happy to slowly plough through the slow bits. The relationships between the characters seem promising, and probably will develop as the series progresses. less
