This is not a mystery, since it's told from the murderer's point of view. It was not interesting to me, I wanted the viewpoint of Inspector Sejer.

Et spændende eksperiment: At skrive en krimiroman set fra drabsmandens perspektiv! Desværre sker der naturligt nok det, at man - når man fjerner spændingen og X-faktoren fra en krimi - står tilbage med en u-spændende, forudsigelig fortælling, der ikke kan trækkes op selv af en udmærket personskildring.

Probably one of the most boring cases of Inspector Sejer! I didnt enjoy the book at all. The book was written in the murderer’s perspective and mostly it is about him.

My first impression is that this was badly translated, it has lot's of typo's and some words were constantly wrong. This was quite annoying and distracting. Even so, I kept reading because I like the Konrad Sejer series. In this one though, Karin Fossum used a different technique and wrote the whole book from the murderers perspective. It was interesting, but I did miss the mystery and detecting. Therefore it wasn't the best one I read up until now.
