Yet again Joona Linna is needed to solve another horrible crime. He has an exceptional mind that seems to figure out the murderers' minds quicker than anyone else.
This time he is faced by a "Rabbit Hunter" who is hunting ten little rabbits. It all starts with the foreign minister's brutal murder. But what makes it even confusing, is the fact that who ever murdered him, left a witness alive. Why and who?
I didn't know that I was in a mood for another Joona Linna book until I picked up this book and started it. The mind of the authors is brilliant. They came out with another gripping and gore mystery thriller. You start up your detective brain whilst reading, make up your own suspects, build a case and when Joona Linna is about to reveal who it is, you're there screaming the name and... you're completely and utterly wrong. Again it took me nearly the whole book before I realized how wrong I was. And honestly, I never suspected the one who actually is behind all the murders.
In my opinion the books in this series are extremely grim. And so is this one. Everything is pretty specifically detailed and as always, it made me very anxious about my own surroundings after dark. But that is how I work every time I read a thriller or watch something scary.
Though I think that is what makes these so good. They feel very true and it feels like I'm part of the whole story whilst reading. I'm totally absorbed in the book, not noticing what happens in real life. That's what I exactly want from a book!
Joona Linna again was exceptional. I don't think it would even be possible for me to not like him. All the others were very well written as well!
But I would have hoped to see a little more of Saga. I mean it is said in the synopsis that she and Joona are the only ones who can solve this case. Yet she fell a lot on the background. A little too much for my liking. Her POVs all together were a little hasty and short.
There was also another new lady introduced who worked with them. And well, pointless in my opinion. I don't think I've cringed that much in a long time while reading about a character that I did when she made some certain decisions and wasn't heard from after in a long long while.
I do not like cliffhanger endings! And that is exactly how this book ended. Fortunately I do have the next book already on my shelves so I can continue on ASAP.
But I also would have loved to see how it all ended with some other characters as well. Actually I think it would have been rather important in this case. Maybe that all will be revealed in the next book as well?
All in all this was yet again one amazing book from Kepler. I will most definitely continue with this series as soon as possible because I need to see where this all goes from where it ended here!
