el final salvó el libro de ser 1⭐
no le encontré mucho sentido a las 2 historias que iban paralelas y supuestamente conectadas, demasiado rebuscado y con muchas vueltas en lo mismo.

me gustó que una de las historias si fue interesante

I absolutely enjoyed this novel which I picked up immediately after The Hypnotist. Hoping to be able to find a copy of The Fire Witness tomorrow. I love the way this couple write and the development of their characters.
Apparently there are 14 more awaiting translation!!
Wonderful.

Murder mysteries are not my favorite genre but this series i cannot put down. I love the range of characters, the twists in plot, the themes beyond the mystery, the connections and emotions of people and how it plays out. I was also excited to find out that the books are written by husband wife duo - which i think explains some of the flow and the range of characters that are developed.

The more I read from the duo "Lars Kepler" the more hooked up I get. Their novels are very fast paced, entertaining and full of twists and turns. It's definitely a "weekend" or easy read if you want to disconnect a bit and just loose yourself in a thrilling mystery. The characters are decently formed, with enough info about them to get the picture, but not enough to become boring.

Összegzésként a könyv tényleg izgalmas volt, és nem hagyott nyugodni. Továbbá imádtam azt a tényt, hogy a szereplőink is ott szaladgálnak, ahol egykor én is szaladgáltam, ugyan azon a vonalon metróznak, amerre én is mentem, a helyek, a helyszínek említének a ténye is feldobott :)) Viszont a fordításon nem tudtam elmenni, néha az volt írva, hogy väg (út), vagy gata (utca), néha pedig le volt fordítva. Egységesen szerintem jobban mutatott volna, viszont nagyot nevettem, amikor megláttam leírva, hogy Drottning utca. NEJ. Drottninggatan :) De ez már szőrszálhasogatás.

Szóval A Paganini-szerződést meleg szívvel ajánlom a skandináv (svéd) krimik szerelmeseinek, a millenniumos gondolat pedig valószínűleg annak fel sem tűnik, aki nem koncentrál rá erre az egészre olyan szinten, mint én. Ha pedig szerettek moziba járni, akkor extrán ajánlom a könyv elolvasását, ugyanis ha minden igaz, akkor 2015-ben érkezik a film :)
