review 1: Good book, Riktor is not a nice man by the stretch of anyone's imagination. He's mean. He's solitary. He doesn't like people. He likes to hurt old people living in the nursing home he works at regularly. How then, do we find ourselves rooting for him to overcome his challenges? Riktor commits a crime that he absolutely gets away with, and then is charged with another crime, that he didn't commit, by the police. The only thing I don't get is the title, which alludes to a special eyesight that Ricktor has, that he can see in the dark, like using military night vision goggles is the way it's described what he sees. But other than mentionin that he has this ability, the author doesn't really put it into the novel or do anything with it. It's not part of the plot at... more all.
review 2: Riktor is a seriously disturbed loner who works as a nurse at a senior citizen home. He delights in flushing the residents' medicines down the toilet and other far crueler acts. When the police arrest him for a crime he didn't commit, although there are others he did perpetrate, Riktor is stunned. Will he be found guilty or will the authorities find out about his other crimes? In I Can See in the Dark, Fossum delves into the mind of a social misfit who's unpredictability is frightening. less
