I really didn’t think I would get into this book. Reading the first 2 chapters was boring and had a lot of Swedish references and I didn’t know what was going on.  But after the Harriet backstory part started I really got into the mystery and read 3/4 of the book in one day.  My only complaint is that the main character, Mikael barely has a flaw and every woman he meets is infatuated with him.
