My thanks to the Author publishers and NetGalley for providing me with a Kindle version of this book to read and honestly review. I am a big fan of 'Scandi Noir ' books and this debut is up there with some of the best, perhaps not in the league of 'The Millennium Trilogy ' or 'Mercy' but a quality read. Atmospheric absorbing clever and well written, engaging from start to finish. Excellent characters who you could relate to, and so descriptive at times i could actually feel the cold, hopefully Kjeld and partner will appear again with more books to come in this series. Also call me an old romantic but I would also hope that Hanna will also make a return. Totally recommended. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

This is a solid enough first novel which took me a while to engage with. however once into the story I really enjoyed it. The setting is atmospheric and the plot interesting with the idea of a dementia-sufferer as the key witness. Although very rooted as Scandi-noir, the author is actually American so it is a very clever homage to the genre. ( )
