review 1: I read the Ice Princess by Camilla Lackberg several years ago and quite liked it. I was therefore anticipating a good read when I started this one. Sadly I can't say the same for her latest effort. I feltthe author padded out a thin plot line with an even slimmer sub plot. The lo...

review 1: That'll be my last Scandinavian crime novel. I'm sure part of the problem is the translation, but this book was so stupid. It's impossible for police to be as naive and innocent as they are portrayed here. Encyclopedia Brown would do a more professional job. Most of the "revelati...
