Victim Without a Face by Stefan Ahnhem

4.0

Solid start of the series. I was not surprised when I have read, that the author is a screenwriter- descriptions of settings and scenes were so vivid, that I felt like watching a movie. Characters are flawed, not super brainers that will solve every mystery in the American style, but normal people, that make mistakes and wander in the dark. I love stories set in Scandinavia, for me, it has really mystique vibe. I feel like at the end we still don't know enough about the murder, but I guess it was kind of the point in the whole story. One thing I didn't like is the plot of a falling apart marriage. I can't recall the last time I've read a book in which the main character had actually a healthy relationship- I guess that would be too fictional.
