I requested this one solely for the Danish aspect. I love books set in places I am very familiar with, and Copenhagen has been home for me for the past 25 years. Needless to say, the setting added even more to the story for me. The writing itself was good. The plot intriguing. It was paced well, and I finished up in two days. And the characters were likable and interesting. I look forward to seeing where this series is heading. I am also curious to see if this becomes a Netflix series.
