Der mittlere Teil war langweilig/langsam aber das Ende hat es sehr gut abgerundet. Der erste Teil war aber besser. Es werden auch slurs u.ä. verwendet.

Overall I liked the writing, but the violent and graphic narrative was overwhelming at points. I have read a lot of these types of books, and this was much more intense than Harry Hole, Armand Gamache, or even the first Department Q book.
