A really good plot line with some thrilling events. Lackberg shows us why Swedish crime is just so popular.

Tak zrovna od tohoto dílu, jsem čekala výrazně víc a upřímně, jsem docela zklamaná. Čtivost knihy, neskutečně kolísala a to ne jen, u současné linky, ale i té historické. Chvílemi byl příběh čtivější, chvílemi mě poměrně nudil, nemluvě o tom, že už se, až zbytečně moc, řeší životy všech vyšetřovatelů a příběh tak, neustále skáče, od jednoho k druhému, od detektivní zápletky ze současnosti, do historie a ještě hlubší historie. Trochu mi přišlo, že se autorka snažila propojit, až příliš různých příběhů a jednoduše se jí to, moc nepovedlo. Snaha o absolutní komplexnost příběhu, je v tomto případě rozhodně na škodu.

Couldn't put it down. I was enthralled with the way Ms. Lackberg wove the story.

Un libro más de la serie de Erica, es entretenido, pero nada novedoso tampoco, repite mucho las mismas fórmulas de libros anteriores.

I would have given [b:Buried Angels] four stars, except that about fifty pages from the end, it started to feel as though [a:Camilla Läckberg|72887|Camilla Läckberg|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1295550934p2/72887.jpg] was getting paid by the page. The denouement was fairly clear at that point and the final pages only added minor details
Spoiler(for instance, it seemed rather immaterial that it was Claes rather than Rune who abused the students, or that Ia was actually Inez and not Annelie)
. The entire plot thread about the five boys-turned-grown-men who had stayed on the island that day also felt like a waste of my time when all was said and done. I understand that you have to have some red herrings in a story like that, but these herrings started to read like Moby Dick after a while. All in all, it was still a good Patrik Hedström story, and I will definitely read the next one when it comes out, but I have no qualms about skipping passages.
