This time Joona Linna, the Swedish inspector is faced with not only one murder case. The question, of whether those two cases are related, doesn’t leave him, and that’s where the nightmare begins.
The positives are the good plot and lots of action, but the many loose ends throughout the story are for me a negative point.
I found the way how the author managed to link common political themes and murder well-established, sometimes maybe a bit far-fetched.
The plot starts interesting, but it loses its fast pace very quickly, a shorter version would have sufficed. Sometimes I had the feeling that the author loses himself in unimportant details and dwells on them.
I wasn’t a fan of the book structure either, all those cliffhangers after every chapter didn’t do the trick for me.
It wasn’t a nightmare to read this book, as other reviews are stating, but not a dream either. After the first book, I thought to give it a second try with this new case. It hasn’t changed my opinion, and I assume that I will give this series a miss.
