hadn’t read a Louise rick in a while. i found the book to be average. The honor killing theme was interesting but i long predicted how it would end.
Read it in one day, which apparently means I have a lot of time on my hands. I LOVED it. The setting was fascinating and the characters were really new and interesting to me. I ran out and got all her other books in English, then wrote a letter to her publisher to translate more, because that's easier than learning to read Danish.
I met Sara at a crime festival in Denmark a few years ago. The festival was held in an old prison, but when we pulled into the parking lot, I literally thought we were at a high school. No kidding. Americans will understand this. Anyway, that is not the point of this story. Since Danish people are normally very shy, I was very pleased and surprised when Sara came over and introduced herself. She is always stylishly dressed and full of poise, which you'd think would make me hate her, but that is not the case. There was also a guy at the crime festival dressed in black and singing Johnny Cash songs ("I Walk the Line") in Danish. Just thought I'd add that because it's one of those things that happens and you think, "is this some kind of weird dream" but I filmed him with my iphone so it must be true.

I was really surprised how the investigation was carried out. I thought the focus was too narrow from the start.
Yay! Ya en este tercer libro siento que mejoró muchísimo. Este sí me gustó.

Another solid novel by Ms. Blaedel. I was pleasantly surprised that I didn't figure out the whole mystery by the end...love a good twist in the plot. Will be digging around on Amazon to find book 3 in English!
