The book is written in 3 parts, Adam's story, Stella's story and Ulrika's story which are all based around the time of the murder as we read about how Stella's time in custody as she is accused of being the murderer - but did she do it? Her parents may also play a part in this story as they notice suspicious things around their house. Although, the more you read Ulrika's story, the more you discover that she wishes for her daughter, Stella, to be more like Amina.
I don't think I would read again if given the chance.
"It's even in the Bible: An eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth. Before Jesus fucked everything up with that part about turning the other cheek."
"For a psychopath, sex is all about power. In the beginning, the psychopath places all the focus on their partner during the act of sex. But psychopaths are drawn to excitement and variation. Soon he will want to spice up their sex life, often with activities that seem uncomfortable to the partner. The psychopath slowly pushes the partner's limits and in this way gains power over her. If the partner refuses to give in to his suggestions, he responds by making her feel guilty or threatening to find someone new."
