A bit slow to get into but after the groundwork has been laid, it's very suspenseful.

I really enjoyed it and can't wait to read the next one in the series.

This book was extremely strange and dark, but that is what I liked about it. The relationships between the characters are different than you see in most other novels. It's an enjoyable thriller, especially if you want to read something that strays from the norm.

3.5 on this one. The book is pretty dated and the writing is not great. (How many descriptions of computers/computer tech can an author write? A great many apparently.) However, the audio narrator did a good job and the plot kept me interested. I knew about the rape scene coming in, so while it was shocking and upsetting, it wasn't as bad as it might have been to listen to.

An astoundingly good book, that is both a great mystery that manages to tie a crazy amount of plot threads and characters together, and also an in-depth examination of sexism and violence against women in Sweden and around the world.
