Great introduction to the characters, mindset and environment for this series. I enjoyed the way the investigation played out, the raw nerves it tried to touch and the general language and movement involved and portrayed. There are similarities to other Scandinavian crime novels, but also a unique writing style due to the tandem author approach.
