Fascinating (crime) story. Well written. Great characterisation. Great plot. A pretty serious book, no humor, but mesmerizing. I don’t think I have ever read anything like it.

I listened to an audiobook. It’s a little hard to get who’s who at first, because of multiple POV’s, but hang in there, after a while it gets better.

A new favorite writer.

I love this series. God knows why. It's not extremely witty. The writer overexplains - I can keep up with the story line, thank you. And yet I just love the characters. Possibly I am very shallow. This is like a cosy Netflix series you won't advertise you're watching. And this book is not the best in the series. It really only picks up pace towards the end. But wottehell. I felt a little depressed, and this book helped.

Great read, almost too exciting for my taste. She must have gotten awards for it, it is beautifully constructed with a surprising outcome. Nice cast of characters. Karen Pirie only has a tiny role in this first book and, having read several of the other Karen Piries, this one is totally different and way more ambitious.

DNF. Book is like a parody of Jack Reacher. Weird story. 1950s sexism I can tolerate, if it has a function. Don’t see that here.

I really wonder if B. wrote this book himself, as it is so lightweight and schematic.

Interessant, maar minder goed dan deel 1
